Things a College Town Taught Me

I learned you could get by with a fake I.D. at a corner store

And a Johnny Cash poster hides a hole in the wall from the landlord

And Tuesday nights are two-for-one

A pack of lights will pack a punch

No, I didn't do it by the book

But I learned everything I should

Like

How to sneak a bottle in the bleachers

And get the right song rocking through the speakers

To turn a Friday night into a Saturday sunrise

And how to talk my way right out of them blue lights

And sweet talk my way into blue eyes

You can retake the class, but can't relive the party

A couple things a college town taught me

I learned to crack a beer at the crack of dawn, on game days

And the girls look better in the home team colors, at the tailgates

And how to get her name, and next thing you know

We're sitting on the fifty, holding her close

No, I didn't do it by the book

But I learned everything I should

Like

How to sneak a bottle in the bleachers

And get the right song rocking through the speakers

To turn a Friday night into a Saturday sunrise

And how to talk my way right out of them blue lights

And sweet talk my way into blue eyes

You can retake the class, but can't relive the party

A couple things a college town taught me

Yeah, a couple things a college town taught me

No, I didn't do it by the book

But I learned everything I should

Like

How to sneak a bottle in the bleachers

And get the right song rocking through the speakers

To turn a Friday night into a Saturday sunrise

Damn right

And how to talk my way right out of them blue lights

And sweet talk my way into blue eyes

You can retake the class, but can't relive the party

A couple things a college town taught me

You can't relive the party

A couple things a college town taught me

No, you can't relive the party

A couple things a college town taught me
