Livin' Hard Was Easy When I Was Young And Bullet-proof
I Had No Chains To Bind Me, Just A Guitar And A Roof
Emptied Every Bottle, When I Poured I Never Missed
I Had Blood Shot Eyes At Twenty-five Or Was It Twenty-six
Didn't Seem To Matter What Price I Had To Pay
Cause Anything Worth Havin', I'd Just Lose Anyway
Friends Worried About Me They'd Asked If I Was Sick
Thought I Wouldn't Die At Twenty-five Or Was It Twenty-six

Those Two Years Run Together Like Whiskey Over Ice
Melted Into Memories Like Somebody Else's Life
I'm Glad To Say, I've Come Around
But If I Could Have One Wish
I'd Like Another Try At Twenty-five
Or Was It Twenty-six

Met A Girl From Georgia, Smart And Pretty, College Grad
I Thought My Luck Was Changin' But Then It All Went Bad
I Guess I Fell In Love With Her All It Took Was Just One Kiss
But Then She Said Goodbye At Twenty-five Or Was It Twenty-six

I've Been Down That Road Before Almost As Far As Hell
Deception Or Redemption, I Guess Only Time Will Tell
I Have Faith And The Knowledge That God Gave Us A Gift
I Couldn't Hide At Twenty-five Or Was It Twenty-six
