- That Was Us LyricsMe and Teddy used to burn that old Chevy
All the way out to Mary Lee's
One of the guy's the kind that ride or die
And we were thick as thieves
The whole damn town said, when we come around
We're as mean as a four letter word
Up to no good fun. No, we didn't have much,
Just a whole lotta time to burn
[Chorus:]
So, if we got high, we got stoned
If there was a fight, we got it on
If there was a backseat, we made love
That was then and that was us
We crossed the county line for a kegger one night
There were some girls we had never seen
Teddy had his eye locked on a dime
Mary said that she was lookin' at me
Standin' there sippin' on a smoke
And a cheap ass bottle of rum
She said "My name's Katie, you're my kinda crazy
And it takes one to know one"
So, if we got high, we got stoned
If there was a fight, we got it on
If there was a backseat, we made love
That was then and that was us
Mary Lee started hangin', started talking
With a boy with a checkered past
It wasn't long 'fore he showed his true colors
And they left her all blue and black
Cops stopped us runnin' 90
With a loaded pistol and a bottle of booze
And it's a good damn thing them blue lights got us
'Fore we did what we was gonna do
So, if we got high, we got stoned
If there was a fight, we got it on
If there was a backseat, we made love
That was then and that was us
If we got high, yeah, you know we're gonna roll it up
If we got high, yeah, you know we got stoned
If there was a fight then you know we're gonna back 'em up
If there was a fight, we got it on
In the back of the seat, you know we got tangled up
In the back of the seat, you know we made love
That was then and that's still us Well, come on
All the way out to Mary Lee's
One of the guy's the kind that ride or die
And we were thick as thieves
The whole damn town said, when we come around
We're as mean as a four letter word
Up to no good fun. No, we didn't have much,
Just a whole lotta time to burn
[Chorus:]
So, if we got high, we got stoned
If there was a fight, we got it on
If there was a backseat, we made love
That was then and that was us
We crossed the county line for a kegger one night
There were some girls we had never seen
Teddy had his eye locked on a dime
Mary said that she was lookin' at me
Standin' there sippin' on a smoke
And a cheap ass bottle of rum
She said "My name's Katie, you're my kinda crazy
And it takes one to know one"
So, if we got high, we got stoned
If there was a fight, we got it on
If there was a backseat, we made love
Mary Lee started hangin', started talking
With a boy with a checkered past
It wasn't long 'fore he showed his true colors
And they left her all blue and black
Cops stopped us runnin' 90
With a loaded pistol and a bottle of booze
And it's a good damn thing them blue lights got us
'Fore we did what we was gonna do
So, if we got high, we got stoned
If there was a fight, we got it on
If there was a backseat, we made love
That was then and that was us
If we got high, yeah, you know we're gonna roll it up
If we got high, yeah, you know we got stoned
If there was a fight then you know we're gonna back 'em up
If there was a fight, we got it on
In the back of the seat, you know we got tangled up
In the back of the seat, you know we made love
That was then and that's still us Well, come on
