[Verse]
I was so young then
Your tongue on my tongue and dancing
A delusional self-important two-step
And you were putting a tulip in my hair
And proving to me that life is not fair
I was tormented and endlessly tempted
To make a scene at every party you were in attendance
But I was so young then
Your hand on my mouth while
You were pulling a choke valve
Sending us eastward into a fever
And you were filling my teacup with gin
And making sure that I would miss you like a limb
And I did
[Chorus]
Where did you run, jackrabbit, did you have fun
Going wild in the bar room of my heart
You threw 'em back, getting drunk
As you watched your songbird sing a tune
You got what you wanted and then kicked up dust
[Verse]
My whistling kettle
Singing your name forever
I wanna press my foot into the pedal
Through your fences til you get it
But instead I just nurse my drink
And I curse the thing
That made me stay so long into the night
That night
It is fun to think about running into you
But I did not know what I'd say
Oh, alright, I do
[Chorus]
Where did you run, jackrabbit, did you have fun
Going wild in the bar room of my heart
You threw 'em back, getting drunk
As you watched your songbird sing a tune
You got what you wanted and then kicked up dust
You kicked up dust
You kicked up dust
[Outro]
I was so young then
I was so young
I was so young
I was so young
I was so young
