Growing up in a little town where there's not a lot to do No matter where you go troubles bound to run into you There was only one water hole this side of the county line The boys and me would hang our clothes on the no trespassing sign CHORUS We'd go swimming swinging from the tire in the tree And we'd go fishing but we never caught anything There was a chance we might get caught but we always got off scot-free Trespassing on old man Walker's property Well the older the old man got the meaner he seemed to be I could tell when our eyes met he didn't care to much for me I remember on Friday nights me and my girl would wait up late When he'd turn off his front porch light we'd hop on over the gate CHORUS We'd go kissing underneath the cottonwood trees And we'd go wishing on every star that we could see There was a chance we might get caught but we always got off scot-free Trespassing on old man Walker's property Not long ago I went back home for the Labor Day weekend As I walked out of the store old man Walker came walking in He said I used to watch you one by one sneak under my gate But I'd let ya'll play till your momma's said it was getting late SongtexteI'd come out a hollerin' and you boys would scatter and run If you'd of known I was a teddy bear you wouldn't of had half the fun I said you ol' son of a gun for all these years I thought you hated me He said boy if that was true would I have hung a tire swing in the tree CHORUS Hearing y'all laughing it really put a smile on my face Seeing y'all splashing really brightened up this place There was a chance you might get caught but you always got off scot-free Trespassing on old man Walker's propertyPacked my bags and said my good-byes early that Sunday evening I drove down the old man's dirt road just as I was leaving Out there in that water hole were little boys like I used to be Trespassing on old man Walker's property Trespassing on old man Walker's property Aus Songtexte Mania
