Raised a lot of hell, back in my younger days They were wild days, yea, wild days Life was just one big joke My head fogged up from the beer and the smoke In my wild days, couldn't see through the haze We had a lot of good times and some bad times too Like when I lost my best friend Tommy Lord, I wished he'd have made it through our wild days Ashes to ashes and dust to dust You know it never seemed quite the same Without him there with us in our wild days Wild days, wild days I guess you never know just when your time might come You know we didn't think about it much Back then when we were young And in our wild days 'Cause when we were young, we didn't have a care Our Parents said we didn't have a prayer We was hanging out, living it up Raising all kinds of hell, pushing our luck We was shooting stars out one by one Til the early morning light dawned On our Wild Days, yea another Wild day Wild days, wild days Now it all seems like a dream I was hell bound, just turned 18 in my wild days Racing my car on them old backroads I had Lynyrd Skynyrd on my Radio, in my wild days getting sideways My Mama always told me son, I'll be praying for you And I know somehow the man upstairs He's gonna get you through the wild days, He sure did 'Cause when we were young, we didn't have a care Our Parents said we didn't have a prayer We was hanging out, living it up Raising all kinds of hell, pushing our luck We was shooting stars out one by one Til the early morning light dawned On our Wild Days, yea another Wild day When we were young, we didn't have a care Our Parents said we didn't have a prayer We was hanging out, living it up Raising all kinds of hell and pushing our luck We was shooting stars out one by one Til the early morning light dawned On our Wild Days, yea another Wild day Wild days Raised a lot of hell, back in my younger days They were Wild days
