At the ripe old age of nineteen
I bought a short bed pickup chicks machine
Life ran on beer and gasoline
Half a lap ahead of the law
I had a fake I.D. got me into Tuffy's
Love was a word I used to get lucky
I was a big time spender with plastic money
Back when I knew it all
Back when the world was flat
And mom and daddy didn't have a clue
That was back when a pitcher of beer
And a couple of shots made me bullet proof
Back when God was a name I used in vain
To get a point across when I got ticked off
Lord, I'm learnin' so much more than
Back when I knew it all
I found out credit cards don't mean you're rich
And beer and gasoline don't mix
And old step side trucks can't jump a ditch
And those big house rooms sure are small
I've learned love is a woman that will settle you down
A Sunday sermon can turn a life around
Man, I can't believe all the answers I've found
Since back when I knew it all
Back when the world was flat
And mom and daddy didn't have a clue
That was back when a pitcher of beer
And a couple of shots made me bullet proof
Back when God was a name I used in vain
To get a point across when I got ticked off
Lord, I'm learnin' so much more than
Back when I knew it all
I've done some growin' up and I'm still growin' up
So, I know I'll never be as smart as I once was
Back when the world was flat
And mom and daddy didn't have a clue
That was back when a pitcher of beer
And a couple of shots made me bullet proof
Back when God was a name I used in vain
To get a point across when I got ticked off
Lord, I'm learnin' so much more than
Back when I knew it all
Back when I knew it all
