First day

high school

being cool was a golden rule

didn't matter what anyone else would say

New shirts that our mommas' bought

we were thinking we were mighty hot

my chest sighed

we were feelin like cash was free

undesputed champions of the hallway

And we were all heroes

legends in our own minds

chasing down dreams on friday nights

cruisin' down the back roads

singin' to the radio

we were all heroes

you might say

stole the keys to my daddy's truck

that tough old man

I was pushing my luck

the things you do to impress the boys

with six cold old beer

and three good friends

a George Strait tape that never ends

the starry nights and country girls

no better time in this whole world

We were all heroes

legends in our own minds

chasing down dreams on friday nights

cruisin' down the back roads

singin' to the radio

we were all heroes

you might say

And I still think about those days

but we grew up and things changed

We were all heroes

legends in our own minds

chasing down dreams on friday nights

cruisin' down the back roads

singin' to the radio

we were all heroes

you might say

You might say

We were all heroes
