Lyrics
A lot of trucks lined up down by the lake
Drinkin’ beer on the back of the tailgate
Boys from the valley want to start a fight
Hey baby what you want to do tonight
The only fear a rebel heart knows
Nothing to do when anything goes
Looking back on those days of thunder
I shake my head and I have to wonder
How we ever made it through that
Girl tonight you’re takin’ me back
There’s a road and a restless wind
Ain’t it good to feel that way again
Here we are, the way we were
In those days of thunder
That old Ford is sure fast on the draw
Outgun the Chevys and outrun the law
Outskirts of town looking down on the lights
Waiting for some kind of lightning strike
The cars and the bars,
The songs we knew have changed
The fire that burns inside of us still remains
Yeah
Looking back on those days of thunder
I shake my head and I have to wonder
How we ever made it through that
Girl tonight you’re taking me back
There’s a road and a restless wind
Ain’t it good to feel that way again
Here we are, the way we were
In those days of thunder,
In those days of thunder, yeah
