A Long Way

Six beers, five guys 
Man, if I remember right
It was a Wednesday when we
Got our buzz off a second-hand six-pack
Half smoked soft pack
Light it up boys, take a drag
And when I fought that cough off 
Everyone else thought I was so damn cool

But my head was spinnin' like a Tilt-A-Whirl
Yeah man, it really rocked my world

Back when everything seemed just a little bit stronger
Back when the weekend lasted a little longer
I can't tell you why they did
But things seemed to never end back then
Oh, way back when
When a little went a long way

One girl and 45 bucks was all it took that night
Hit the steakhouse, makeout in the movies way up in the back
Credits roll on pace
To make it all the way to second base
Tried to play it cool like it was nothin' new 
And she didn't have a clue

And my head was spinnin' like a Tilt-A-Whirl
Yeah man, she really rocked my world

Back when everything seemed just a little bit stronger
Back when the weekend lasted a little longer
I can't tell you why they did
But things seemed to never end back then
Oh, way back when
When a little went a long, long way

Back when everything seemed just a (a little bit stronger)
Back when the weekend lasted a little longer
I can't tell you why they did (but they did)
But things seemed to never end back then
Oh, way back when
When a little went a long way
A long, long way
A long way
