That Was Us lyrics - Gilbert Brantley

I got my mail today, this economy sucks
A buncha bills i can't pay,
I guess they're shit outta luck.
But there was one from an old friend,
Brought back memories
A black and white from way back when.
Was hard to believe that, that was us

That was us ridin' dirt roads shootin' buckshot at signs, drinkin' beer we just stole
Passin' jugs full of shine,

Even the girls were one of the boys
Singin' old country gold 'til we all lost our voice
That was us

Every once in a while we'll catch a game or a race,
But catchin' up on old times turns into hell that we raised. We'll start re-tellin' stories and lies we've rehearsed
About the girls we made out with and how badass we were
That was us, that was us

That was us down in panama cruisin' the strip
In the bed of my truck tossin' beads and talkin' shit
Shotgunnin' beer, playin' pong and flip cup.
We never lost senior year, we tore them son bitches up
That was us, that was us.

And we'll always remember those of us that we miss
We'll always be brothers and we'll never forget.
But that was us that we carried, with tears in our eyes
When the rest of us are buried,
We're throwin' down in the sky.
So raise a glass to the memories that won't ever die
Here's to friends, here's to family and one hell of a time
Yeah, here's to us, here's to us
Yeah, here's to us, yeah here's to us.
