Intro : It was 1989, my thoughts were short my hair was long Caught somewhere between a boy and man She was 17 and she was far from in between It was summertime in Northern Michigan (Reprendre l'intro) Splashin'thru the sandbar, talkin'by the campfire It's the simple things in life like when and where We didn't have no internet, but man I never will forget The way the moonlight shined upon her hair And we were tryin'different things and we were smokin'funny things Makin'love out by the lake to our favorite songs Sippin'whisky out the bottle not thinkin''bout tomorrow Singin'sweet home alabama all summer long         Singin'sweet home alabama all summer long Catchin'walleye from the dock watchin'waves roll off the rocks She'll forever hold a spot inside my soul We'd blister in the sun we couldn't wait for night to come To hit that sandy place of rock 'n roll (Instrumental) Now nothin'seems as strange as when the leaves began to change Oh how we thought those days would never end Sometimes I hear that song and I'll start to sing along And think man I'd like to see that girl again Refrain (2x) (Reprendre l'intro)
