I had a friend was a big baseball player back in high school
He could throw that speed ball by you make you look like a fool boy
Saw him the other night on this roadside bar
I was walking in he was walking out
We went back inside sit down had a few drinks but all he kept talkin' 'bout
Glory days
Well they'll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days
There was a girl that lived up the block back in school
She could turn all the boys needs
Sometimes on a Friday
I'll stop by and have a few drinks
After she put her kids to bed her and her husband
Boby well they split up
I guess it's two years gone by now
We just sit around talkin' about the old times
She says when she feels like cryin' she starts laughin' thinkin' 'bout
Glory days
Well they'll pass you by

Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days
Think I'm goin' down to the well tonight and
I'm gonna drink till
I get my fill and I hope when I get old
I don't sit 'round thinkin' 'bout it but I probably will yeah just sittin' back tryin' to recapture a little of the glory of
Well the time slips away
And leaves you with nothin'
Mister but boring stories
Glory days
Well they'll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days
Well they'll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days
