Band Camp |
Well the first time i ever laid eyes on you |
Was my first year at marching band camp |
You never played the part as it was written |
You would always vamp |
You was always cracking me up |
Messing with the band director |
Mocking the tuba parts |
In your upper register |
If i knew then what i know now |
You shouldn’t’ve even been talking to me |
Just a lowly freshman |
And you the undisputed queen of the senior class |
Without question |
Yet at the band hangout ruth’s restaurant |
We sat together in a corner booth |
We got our burgers for free |
Because you was kin to ruth |
If i knew then what i know now |
You always had a little something |
Hidden in your instrument case |
We would be practically making out |
On the bus home from the way games |
Once you soaked a tampon in some serious vodka |
Wore it to school |
Second period science lab |
You fell right off your stool |
If i knew then what i know now |
I didn’t go to your graduation |
I just couldn’t find the strength |
And i had to throw my yearbook in the dumpster |
Because it was haunting me |
The very next time i ever laid eyes on you |
It was practically christmas |
You already looked like a whole different person |
Just like much older sister |
If i knew then what i know now |
I still never, never, never would’ve |
Seen that coming |
