Intro
Verse
Yeah Me Jim and Dan we were all best friends.
Ridin' off like cowboys on a road that never ends.
We knew it was the last time for the time of our lives.
You see Dan was gettin' married Jim was goin' to desert storm.
I was headin' off to college movin' into a dorm.
So we took off in that old hot rod. Back when we were gods.
Chorus
You couldn't tell us nothin' we didn't already know.
And if a sign said off limits you could be we would go.
A hundred miles an hour non stop.
Back when we were gods.
Verse
There were Arizona troopers trailin' close behind.
We knew they couldn't touch us once we crossed the state line.
So we pulled over and showed 'em a Tennessee moon
From the California side.
L.A. was a nightmare Vegas was a dream.
Dan had won more money than we had ever seen.
Didn't take us one day to blow the whole lot.
Yeah back when we were gods.
Chorus
You couldn't tell us nothin' we didn't already know.
And if a sign said off limits you could be we would go.
A hundred miles an hour non stop.
Back when we were gods.
Bridge
We thought we were invincible couldn't nothin' bring us down.
But it didn't take long for the real world to knock us flat on the ground.
And I hope we were forgiven for all the crazy things we did.
After all we were just kids.
Chorus
You couldn't tell us nothin' we didn't already know.
And if a sign said off limits you could be we would go.
A hundred miles an hour non stop.
Back when we were gods
Back when we were gods.
When we thought we were gods.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
When we thought we were gods.
