Montgomery Gentry "Back When I Knew it All" Back When I Knew It All, 2008 Songwriters: Trent Willmon, Phil O'Donnell & Gary Hannan Intro: VERSE 1 At the ripe old age of nineteen I bought a short bed pickup chicks machine Life ran on beer and gasoline A half a lap ahead of the law I had a fake ID that got me into Tuffy’s Love was a word I used to get lucky Was a big time spender with that plastic money Back when I knew it all CHORUS: Back when the world was flat and Mama and Daddy didn't have a clue Back when a pitcher of beer and a couple shots made me bulletproof Back when God was a name I used in vain to get a point across when I got ticked off Lord I'm learning so much more...than back when I knew it all VERSE 2 I found out credit cards don't mean you're rich And beer and gasoline don't mix Yeah step side trucks can't jump a ditch And those "big house" rooms sure are small I've learned that love is a woman that will settle you down A Sunday sermon can turn life around Man I can't believe all the answers I've found Since ....back when I knew it all Back when the world was flat and Mama and Daddy didn't have a clue Back when a pitcher of beer and a couple shots made me bulletproof Back when God was a name I used in vain to get a point across when I got ticked off Lord I'm learning so much more...than back when I knew it all BRIDGE: I've done some growing up And I'm still growing up So I know i'll never be as smart as I once was That was back....... Back when the world was flat and Mama and Daddy didn't have a clue Back when a pitcher of beer and a couple shots made me bulletproof Back when God was a name I used in vain to get a point across when I got ticked off Lord I'm learning so much more...than back when I knew it all
