Twenty dollars out of momma's purse bought us a tank of gas
                        F                                          C          G
And a pack of tobacco when, we was just teenage kids.
C                          F                        C
Me and Jack and Danny we'd go driving round
                                F                                        C
If there was trouble to be found, heh, then we found it quick.

              Am                G                          C
Cuttin' donuts in the fields ‘till old man Smith would call the cops
                          Am                         G
And he'd come running out with a shotgun ‘cause we was 
C
Running down his crops.
     Dm                         Em                    F            G
And I reckon he's still wonderin who that was,

That was us.

Some of these local boys moved on but we never changed a bit
                     F                                                      C                G
Never had a scr*p of sense, at least that's what some folks said.
              C                       F                            C 
Yeah we finally turned old enough to buy our own beer
                              F                                               C
Don't remember about that year, just lucky that were not dead.

                Am                G                          C         
‘Cause somebody said they saw some boys with a ute looked just like mine
                          Am                         G                      C              
Trying to pull down that old water tank that sits out by the railway line.

People wonder why it leans the way it does.

That was us.


              Am                             G                                C
Seems like small towns never change but things get tough when times get hard
              Am                       G                      C
And they say when he got sick, old man Smith would have lost that farm
                       Am                G                       C
‘Cause he was getting way behind on all his bills

But someone came and brought his crops in from the fields
Dm                                         Em                            F        G
Yeah folks ‘round here still don't know who that was

 Cuttin' donuts in the fields ‘till old man Smith would call the cops
                          Am                         G
And he'd come running out with a shotgun ‘cause we was
