[00:09.66]Well we grew up down by the railroad tracks
[00:12.20]Shootin' b.b.'s at old beer cans
[00:15.06]Chokin' on the smoke from a lucky strike
[00:17.52]Somebody lifted off of his old man
[00:20.21]We were football flunkies
[00:21.66]Rock and roll junkies
[00:23.11]Crackin' up the stereos
[00:25.44]Singin' loud and proud to gimme three steps
[00:28.05]And that old time rock and roll we can't be known
[00:36.21]We got some discount knowledge at the junior college
[00:39.00]Where we majored in beer and girls
[00:41.32]It was all real funny 'til we ran out of money
[00:44.02]And they threw us out into the world
[00:46.67]Yeah the kids that thought they'd run this town
[00:49.28]Ain't runnin' much of anything
[00:51.91]We're just lovin' and laughin'
[00:53.52]And bustin' our asses
[00:54.60]And we call it all livin' the dream
[00:57.36]These are my people
[00:59.75]This is where I come from
[01:03.41]We're givin' this life everything we've got and then some
[01:07.65]It ain't always pretty
[01:10.45]But it's real
[01:13.65]That's the way we were made
[01:15.15]Wouldn't have it any other way
[01:17.42]These are my people
[01:23.39]Well we take it all week on the chin with a grin
[01:25.88]Till we make it to a friday night
[01:28.56]And it's church league softball holler 'bout a bad call
[01:31.42]Preacher breakin' up the fight
[01:33.88]Then later on at the green light tavern
[01:36.73]Well everybody's gatherin' as friends
[01:39.27]And the beer is pourin' till monday mornin'
[01:41.94]Where we start all over again
[01:44.39]These are my people
[01:46.57]This is where I come from
[01:49.93]We're givin' this life everything we've got and then some
[01:54.58]It ain't always pretty
[01:57.57]But it's real
[02:00.15]That's the way we were made
[02:02.05]Wouldn't have it any other way
[02:04.52]These are my people
[02:07.46]We fall down
[02:09.53]and we get up
[02:12.04]We walk proud
[02:14.67]and we talk tough
[02:17.27]We got heart
[02:19.98]and we got nerve
[02:23.53]Even if we are a bit disturbed
[02:36.14]These are my people
[02:38.46]This is where I come from
[02:42.06]We're givin' this life everything we've got and then some
