Lyrics
Yeah, back in the high school, yeah they’re so cool
Letterman jackets in the parking lot
Draggin’ on a Camel light, back behind the Five and Dime
Prayin’ that they never get caught
Everybody’s gonna fish fry Saturday night
‘Cause if you call one, gotta call ’em all
Cruisin’ down the main street, drivin’ through the Dairy Queen
Ain’t got a Walmart, ain’t got a mall
We’re old school, small town stickin’ around
Just like folks used to, good ol’ boys and girls
Just fallin’ in love, livin’ the life, yeah
Middle of nowhere feels about right
Keepin’ it old school, just the way we like
Married by 19, two pawn shop rings
Ain’t a big city, but it sure is nice
Blue collar, six-pack, work hard, laid back
Sittin’ on the front porch, drop on by
Pickin’ on a six-string, livin’ on a shoestring
Ain’t got much, but we don’t care
Needle on a record don’t get any better
Like, “Whoa baby, we’re halfway there”
We’re old school, small town stickin’ around
Just like folks used to, good ol’ boys and girls
Just fallin’ in love, livin’ the life, yeah
Middle of nowhere feels about right
Keepin’ it old school, just the way we like
Everybody say old school, small town stickin’ around
Just like folks used to, good ol’ boys and girls
Just fallin’ in love, livin’ the life, yeah
Middle of nowhere feels about right
Keepin’ it old school, just the way we like
Yeah, we’re kickin’ it old school, it’s a small town stickin’ around
Just like folks used to, good ol’ boys and girls
Just fallin’ in love, livin’ the life, yeah
Middle of nowhere feels about right
Keepin’ it old school, just the way we like
Old school
Old school
