Livin' hard was easy when I was young and bullet-proof
I had no chains to bind me, just a guitar and a roof
Emptied every bottle, when I poured I never missed
I had blood shot eyes at twenty-five or was it twenty-six
Didn't seem to matter what price I had to pay
Cause anything worth havin', I?d just lose anyway
Friends worried about me they?d asked if I was sick
Thought I wouldn?t die at twenty-five or was it twenty-six
[Chorus:]
Those two years run together like whiskey over ice
Melted into memories like somebody else's life
I?m glad to say, I?ve come around
But if I could have one wish
I?d like another try at twenty-five
Or was it twenty-six
Met a girl from Georgia, smart and pretty, college grad
I thought my luck was changin' but then it all went bad
I guess I fell in love with her all it took was just one kiss
But then she said goodbye at twenty-five or was it twenty-six
[Chorus]
I've been down that road before almost as far as hell
Deception or redemption, I guess only time will tell
I have faith and the knowledge that God gave us a gift
I couldn't hide at twenty-five or was it twenty-six
[Chorus]
