I had a friend, he was a big baseball player
Glory days
Well there's a girl that lives up the block
Glory days
Think I'm going down to the well tonight
Glory days
Return to Bruce Springsteen lyrics.
back in high school
he could throw that speedball by you
make you look like a fool, boy
saw him the other night at this roadside bar
I was walking in, he was walking out
we went back inside, sat down, had a few drinks
but all he kept talking about was
well they'll pass you by, glory days
in the wink of a young girl's eye, glory days
glory days
back in school she could turn all the boy's heads
sometimes on a Friday I'll stop by and have a few drinks
after she put her kids to bed
her and her husband Bobby, well they split up
I guess it's two years gone by now
we just sit around talking about the old times
she says when she feels like crying
she starts laughing thinking about
well they'll pass you by, glory days
in the wink of a young girl's eye, glory days
glory days
and I'm gonna drink till I get my fill
and I hope when I get old I don't sit around thinking about it
but I probably will
yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
a little of the glory of
well time slips away and leaves you with nothing mister
but boring stories of
well they'll pass you by, glory days
in the wink of a young girl's eye, glory days
glory days
