Glory Days
by Bruce Springsteen
I had a friend was a big baseball player
back in high school
He could throw that speedball by you
Make you looklike a fool boy
Saw him the other night at this roadside
bar I was walking in and he was walking
out
We went back inside sat down, had a few
drinks but all he kept talking about was
Glory days well they'll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's
eye
Glory days, glory days
There's a girl that lives up the block back
in school she could turn all the boys'
head
Sometimes an a Friday I'll stop by and
have a few drinks after she put her kids
to bed
Her and her husband Bobby well they
split up
I guess it's two years gone by now
We just sit around talking about the old
times, she says when she feels like
crying she starts laughing thinking
about
Glory days well they'll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's
eye
Glory days, glory days
Think I'm going down to the well tonight
and I'm going to drink till I get my fill
And I hope when I get old I don't sit
around thinking about it but I probably
will
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
a little of the glory of, but time slips away
and leaves you with nothing mister but
boring stories of glory days
Glory days well they'll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's
eye
Glory days, glory days
