Oh so many years ago
Days were longer truth be told
They'd go on and on
As we'd play our songs
Sing harmony till dawn

Every Day we'd play the street
Busking music it was sweet
People filled the case
With coins they gave
And with a Smile moved on

I would give a quarter just to be that boy again
Playin' out and singin' with my friend
Guitars on the corner by the bend
And passersby would stop and listen

Victory Music Wednesday night
Coffee shop and open mic
Music brought us to it
We formed a duet
The voices blending tight

We played "The Other Side of the Tracks"
To Puyallup we'd go back
Is it there today?
Did it move away?
Fall into the cracks?

I would give a quarter just to be that boy again
Playin' out and singin' with my friend
Guitars, open mics and coffee man
And passersby would stop and listen

My friend he met a girl at school
They rode off into the world
Though I strummed on , felt that magic gone
Life, it seemed so cruel

I joined a band and hit the road
Left behind my heavy load
That too went away
Now I'm hear to say
You can't go back when you're old

But, I would give a quarter Just to be that boy again
Playin' out and singin' with my friend
Guitars, voices, playin' in the band
And passersby would stop and listen
