I had a friend was a big baseball player
Back in highschool
He could throw that speedball by ya
Make you look like a fool boy
Saw him the other night
At this
Roadside bar
I was walking in
He was
Walking out
We went back inside, sat down
Had a few drinks
But all we kept talking about
Glory days
Yeah they'll pass you by
Glory days
In the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days
Glory days

All right
There's this girl
That lives up the block
Back in school she could turn all the boys heads
Sometimes on 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
Yeah they'll pass you by
Glory days
In the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days
Glory days

Ooh
Think I'm going down to the
Well tonight
And I'm gonna
Drink till I get my fill
And I hope
When I get older 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
Well the time slips away
And leaves you with nothing mister but
Boring stories of
Glory days
Yeah they'll pass you by
Glory days
In the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days
Glory days
Yeah they'll pass you by
Glory days
In the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days
Glory days

All right boys
Keep it rocking now
We gonna go home now
Burning hot
Burning hot
