Charlie Daniels Was It 26
Living hard was easy when I was young and bullet proof
Had no ties to bind me just a pickup and a roof
I emptied every bottle when I poured I never missed
Had bloodshot 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 and they asked if I was sick
Thought I would die at twenty five or was it twenty six
Those two years blend together like whiskey over ice
Melting into mem'ries 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
I met a girl from Georgia smart and pretty college grad
Thoought my luck was changin' up to then it'd all been
bad
I guess I fell in love all it took was just one kiss
But she said goodbye at twnty five or was it twenty six
Those two years blend together like whiskey over ice...
Yeah I've been down the road prob'ly been as far as
hell
Deception or redemption I guess only time will tell
I have faith in the knowledge that God gave us a gift
I couldn't hide at twenty five or was it twenty six
Those two years blend together like whiskey over ice...
I'd like another try at twenty five or was it twenty
six
