She was a Flash in my life like a bolt through the sky,
We were both 18, learning to fly
When she told me she loved me in the back of my buddies truck.
Oh how the sweet smell of those summer memories fade
Sometimes wish I, could relive those days
We laughed,  we cried,  we lived life wild  
And when I close my eyes I see you 1 more time

We used to drive all night
Down them country roads
Blazing trail Raisin Hell with our brothers
Passin grandpas whiskey in that bonfire smoke
Tellin tales and lies about lovers
Drinkin one right after the other
Took a whole day & night to recover
From those American summers

In a midnight blue chevy kill the headlights
a young gun wildin’ runnin’ red lights
shotgun tucked underneath the stepside
me & my brothers just runnin’ the west side
American flag / back of a window
rolln’ up a zag / dads old pinto
sippin’ old crow knowin’ its stolen
same damn bottle grandad was holden
5 miles out where there’s no police
she lit the flame by an old oak tree
shiftin’ gears she was movin’ fast
burn it slow, so the memories last 

We used to drive all night
Down them country roads
Blazing trail Raisin Hell with our brothers
Passin grandpas whiskey in that bonfire smoke
Tellin tales and lies about lovers
Drinkin one right after the other
Took a whole day & night to recover
From those American summers
