We were kicking back and drinking, talking smack and thinking
How time flies, and wondering where it all goes
It seemed like just last week we heard that senior speech
About changing the world, but what did they know?
Then life kicked us around, but it couldn’t keep us down
We learned the hard way and always found a way to have fun
We never played by the rules
I think the glass is half full, and the best is yet to come
Right now, the night is young, the beer is cold
The good Lord’s painting that sunset gold
We’re still those back road boys chasing those red dirt girls
We’re still getting by, getting high, on top of the world
Still living like there’s no tomorrow
We know that those tomorrows are gonna fade away
So love them while you got them, live them up before you’ve left them
‘Cause these are the days, these are the days
Right now, these are the good old days
Now you can’t make old friends, and good things come to an end
Babies grow up too fast, grandparents leave too soon
Take that trip, hug your mom, chase your dreams, make that call
You better ask you to dance when you’ve got the chance to
Somewhere way down the line when the silver starts to shine
These memories may become reruns like an old picture show
No one can outrun their fade
No time to wait, so don’t wait till the credits start to roll

The good Lord is painting that sunset gold
We’re still those back road boys chasing those red dirt girls
We’re still getting by, getting high on top of the world
Still living like there’s no tomorrow
We know that those tomorrows are gonna fade away
So love them while you got them, live them up before you’ve left them
‘Cause these are the days, these are the days
Right now, these are the good old days
Every moment better on, every minute while you’re in it
Live it up, right down to your last breath
I’m not afraid of dying, it’s the fear of not living
That should scare us all half to death
Right now, the night is young, the beer is cold
The good Lord’s painting that sunset gold
We’re still those back road boys chasing those red dirt girls
We’re still getting by, getting high, on top of the world
Still living like there’s no tomorrow
We know that those tomorrows are gonna fade away
So love them while you got them, live them up before you’ve left them
‘Cause these are the days, these are the days
Right now, these are the good old days
Right now, these are the good old days
Right here, right now, these are the good old days
