That Was Us Lyrics - Tracy Lawrence

Twenty dollars out of mama's purse bought us a tank of gas 

And some red man tobacco when we was just teenage kids 

Yeah me and my ole' buddy Leroy we'd go driving around 

If there was trouble to be found, man we dang sure did 

Cuttin' donuts in the field 'till old man Smith would call the cops 

And he'd come running out with a shotgun 'cause we was running down his 

crops 

I reckon he still wonders who that was 

That was us

Some of those local boys moved on but we never changed a bit 

Don't guess we had enough sense, at least that's what some folks said 

Yeah we finally turned old enough to buy our own beer 

Don't remember much about that year, lucky we ain't dead 

'Cause somebody said they saw some boys with a truck looked just like mine 

Trying to pull down that old water tank sits out on the county line 

People wonder why it leans the way it does 

That was us 

Seems like small towns never change but thing get tough when times get hard 

And they said when he got sick that old man Smith would have lost that farm 

'Cause he was getting way behind on all his bills 

But someone came and brought his crops in from the fields 

Yeah folks 'round here still don't know who that was 

That was us 

Cuttin' donuts in the field 'till old man Smith would call the cops 

And he'd come running out with a shotgun 'cause we was running down his 

crops
