I used to tear that town up
Used to burn them bars down
Used to act all real tough
Used to try to show out
I hate to say it but the cops used to know my name

A lot of them daddies sure hated me too
That´s the reason my momma prayed
Prayed I´d meet a girl like you

I could talk the talk in the back of a bar
Walk the walk any girl to her car
I could drink the drink to just get drunk
Kiss the kiss without falling in love
I did what I did and didn´t give a damn
I was who I was, now I am who I am
But you wouldn´t love the man
If you´d´ve known the boy I was back then

I wasn´t a good guy
I wasn´t a bad guy
But I sure wasn´t the guy that you´d wanna spend your life with
Yeah, when I think about those days

All the nights stayed out past two
I ain´t sorry for the hell I raised
´Cause hell, it led me straight to you

I could talk the talk in the back of a bar
Walk the walk any girl to her car
I could drink the drink to just get drunk
Kiss the kiss without falling in love
I did what I did and didn´t give a damn
I was who I was, now I am who I am
But you wouldn´t love the man
If you´d´ve known the boy I was back then

Back when
I was a wrecking ball, I´d wreck it all
Then I grew up when you made me fall
In love with you

I could talk the talk in the back of a bar
Walk the walk any girl to her car
I could drink the drink to just get drunk
Kiss the kiss without falling in love
I did what I did and didn´t give a damn
I was who I was, now I am who I am
But you wouldn´t love the man
If you´d´ve known the boy I was back then
