Lyrics

Next Time Around

First kiss took me
In the parking lot
I was With my band
At a church sock hop
Making up
How we're making out
Lips were parted
I missed her mouth
I really hope its better
Next time around

First love met me
At a city park
In summer's grass
It was cool and dark
Music played
On a stage that night
I didn't get it
But that's all right
I really hope it's better
Next time around

Hey e ey ey ey
Next time around
Hey e ey ey ey
Next time around

Children happen
For the greater good
But what you think
Will become their should
Give 'em love
For the days ahead
Count your blessings
Before you're dead
I really hope it's better
Next time around

Hey e ey ey ey
Next time around
Hey e ey ey ey
Next time around

Digging a hole
To the other side
Can't tell the truth
When you got to hide
Last week passed
Like a rifle shot
Found its target
But I did not
I really hope it's better
Next time around

Hey e ey ey ey
Next time around
Hey e ey ey ey
Next time around
Hey e ey ey ey
Next time around
Hey e ey ey
Next time around
