Take a little trip me back to Junior High Set the time to 1975 We'd found out that momma's gonna have another kid in the 8th grade
Remember the days when was not so mysterious Follow me the hall to the cafeteria Where the thing I could mess up Was yesterday's corn dog in last week's ketchup in the 8th grade
Why does the past always safer? Maybe because at least we we made it And why do we about the future? When every day will come just the way the Lord it You can believe it, yeah, just like the 8th
Step out into the hall and feel the pass Slam the locker, there's the bell, runnin' to class 'Cause Mr. Jackson told us,"Don't be late for again" back in the 8th grade
I drop my books, sit and mess with my hair Suzie at me and smiles, I'm walkin' on air Then I hear my name, I missed the question, I somethin' The class is laughing, oh I love the 8th
Why does the past always safer? Maybe because at least we we made it And why do we worry the future? When every day come just the way the Lord ordained it You can believe it, yeah, the 8th grade
Why does the past always safer? because at least we know we made it And why do we about the future? every day will come just the way the Lord ordained it You can believe it, yeah, just the 8th grade You can believe it, yeah, even the 8th
