[Verse 1]    I’m back in my hometown The main street’s dying down It’s like there’s nothing left of it    No more high school grounds They tore that building down And everything we built well I miss    I cut off my own friends So lost inside seeing them Feels like we’re back there instantly to me    We all need a chance The backyard fires on And we stop telling tales of how life used to be [Pre-Chorus 1]   But years have come and gone But these stories carry on Looking back they’re better than they used to be [Chorus 1] Cause you should’a seen the size of the guys we were fightin’ And we shouldn’t be alive at the speeds we were driving But momma always taught us to never tell a lie And every ten yard pass always turned into twenty Every girl we were with never cost any money And we drank more tequila than any man alive And the story goes on It gets a little better every time we’re together          [Verse 2]    It’s funny how we change And some things stay the same God I miss the glory days always    Daylight getting near We shed a few more tears Lord I love the memories we’ve made [Pre-Chorus 2]   The years have come and gone But the stories carry on Looking back they’re better than they used to be [Chorus 2] Cause you should’a seen the size of the guys we were fightin’ And we shouldn’t be alive at the speeds we were driving But momma always taught us to never tell a lie And every ten yard pass always turned into twenty Every girl we were with never cost any money And we drank more tequila than any man alive And the story goes on It gets a little better every time we’re together          [Chorus 3] Cause you should’a seen the size of the guys we were fightin’ And we shouldn’t be alive at the speeds we were driving But momma always taught us to never tell a lie And every ten yard pass always turned into twenty Every girl we were with never cost any money And we drank more tequila than any man alive And the story goes on It gets a little better every time we’re together          And the story goes on It gets a little better every time we’re together

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque le retour aux racines et la nostalgie des moments passés. Elle décrit le sentiment de perte face aux changements subis par sa ville natale et souligne le besoin de retrouver des amis d'autrefois. Au fil des souvenirs, les protagonistes se remémorent les aventures de leur jeunesse, marquées par des moments insouciants, des histoires embellies par le temps, et une camaraderie indéfectible. Ces souvenirs semblent s'enrichir chaque fois qu'ils se retrouvent, renforçant le lien qui les unit malgré les années qui passent. C'est une célébration des liens d'amitié et de la façon dont le passé continue d'influer sur le présent.
