’95 we were 17, yeah, we drove our parents mad
Cutting out of the high school with every chance we had
Heading for the river bank out by the water tower
Riding on the back roads at 90 miles an hour
Billy green was the wild one
Had a scar below his eye
When he jumped that rail bridge
Just before the train went by
Walked me down by the river side
Honey, whispered in my ear
Said, “jennie, jennie, you’re the only girl who can get me out of here”
But don’t believe the lies they tell you
Don’t you know they’ll buy and sell you
Never, never, never, never let you heart grow old
Never, never, never, never let you love grow cold
Keep your engines turning
Keep your fire burning
Riding double on his indian
Where the county highways end
Roaring down the hillside
Heading for the horseshoe bend
Getting ready for the downshift
When a big rig crossed the line
Billy dove for the pavement, i walked away just fine
As he lay before me dying
He spoke these words to stop my crying
Never, never, never, never let you heart grow old
Never, never, never, never let you love grow cold
You’ve got the fire within you
Never let them pin you
Downnnnnnnn
Billy, you’re just a memory and picture on my wall
I still think about you when the leaves begin to fall
I still hear you laughing, see the mischief in your smile
Makes me want to linger, maybe stick around a while
Never, never, never, never let you heart grow old
Never, never, never, never let you love grow cold
Never, never, never, never let you heart grow old
Never, never, never, never let you love grow cold
