The Way Back

Lyrics

…The Way Back… [INSTRUMENTAL INTRO SOLO] …. …. …. [VERSE 1-Jonny Lang] I wanna go back Midwest Kids from nowhere Michigan sticks Silly bro teens liven by our own unwritten rubrics Back to kicking it in the back woods Nothin beats crack’n quick witted jokes with the buds Sippin on somethin odd Like strong taste’n spiced rum Chit chatt’n about everything dumb Lip packed full spit’n dip Chirp’n & snicker’n cause we spit a wad strung like a fiddle Tryin lit sticks for the first time Coughing up a thick smoke, phlegm-ish slime [VINYL DJ TURNTABLE SCRATCHING] … … [CHORUS-Jonny Lang] Not all moments were perfect But every single moment was perfect to me Travel back when it was just us three I wanna go back There for one another to keep us from derailing off track When summers felt forever We always stayed tightly knitted together I wanna… Go back… Reminisce of the way back… I wanna go back to the ..way.. ..way.. ..back.. [VINYL DJ TURNTABLE SCRATCHING] … … [VERSE 2-Jonny Lang] I wanna go back… Back to getting into each others passions Huntin scout’n & even fishin Funnest part is that neither of us really knew what we was doin Lift’n for circuit amateur fight’n Though for me, I was never a fighter I’ve always been the epitome of spoken words of a lover But sometimes my actions spoke differently Cause collisions of hard hits in sports was my rhapsody Strength served us well one more than the others We always came to support cause we defined ourselves as brothers [INSTRUMENTAL] … I wanna go back to the ..way.. ..way.. ..back.. [BRIDGE-Jonny Lang] Back when things were simple Just us three Us against the world Have’n our own goofy fun like drinkin No matter how many times we hurled Listen to multiple genres of music Even if it was just acoustic [VINYL DJ TURNTABLE SCRATCHING] … … [CHORUS-Jonny Lang] I wanna go back to the ..way.. ..way.. ..back.. Not all moments were perfect But every single moment was perfect to me Travel back when it was just us three I wanna go back There for one another to keep us from derailing off track When summers felt forever We always stayed tightly knitted together I wanna… Go back… Reminisce of the way back… I wanna go back to the ..way.. ..way.. ..back.. [BRIDGE OUTRO-Jonny Lang] If we ever drift apart Just know you both will always be in my heart Live’n on & on in memory Engraved from within until my last days become blurry I’ll never forget our bad & good history When its my time to fly Some things won’t be written in stone But you both gave my soul a real story Cheers to the ..way.. ..way.. ..back.. Oh that ..way.. ..way.. ..back.. [VINYL DJ TURNTABLE SCRATCHING] … …Wa.. Wa.. Wakshi Batoo [INSTRUMENTAL SOLO OUTRO] ….
