June, 20th 2017

Soft rock song by Andra Day that has been performed by husky voice. A girl is telling a story of back days when she was dating a guy that was a top baseball player in their high school team. After they have had an initial meeting, they’ve met again, in two years after it and they’ve been talking again for long hours about their life, dreams, and achievements. In the chorus, there are words about some glory days but it isn’t understood what kind of glory days these are – it isn’t obvious. Then a girl tells about a father that has been working for 20 years on a company until they fired him. Reference: 'Andra Day: 5 Songs You Should Know' - Read on Billboard

Glory Days Song Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I had a friend was a big baseball player

Back in high school

He could throw that speedball by you

Make you look like a fool boy

Saw him the other night at this roadside bar

I was walking in, he was walking out

We went back inside sat down had a few drinks

But all he kept talking about was

[Chorus]

Glory days well they'll pass you by

Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye

Glory days, glory days

[Verse 2]

Well there's a girl that lives up the block

Back in school she could turn all the boy's heads

Sometimes on a Friday i'll stop by

And have a few drinks after she put her kids to bed

Her and her husband bobby well they split up

I guess it's two years gone by now

We just sit around talking about the old times

She says when she feels like crying

She starts laughing thinking about

[Chorus]

Glory days well they'll pass you by

Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye

Glory days, glory days

[Verse 3]

My old man worked 20 years on the line

And they let him go

Now everywhere he goes out looking for work

They just tell him that he's too old

I was 9 nine years old and he was working at the

Metuchen ford plant assembly line

Now he just sits on a stool down at the legion hall

But i can tell what's on his mind

[Chorus]

Glory days yeah goin back

Glory days aw he ain't never had

Glory days, glory days

[Verse 4]

Now i think i'm going down to the well tonight

And i'm going to drink till i get my fill

And i hope when i get old i don't sit around thinking about it

But i probably will

Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture

A little of the glory of, well time slips away

And leaves you with nothing mister but

Boring stories of glory days

[Chorus]

Glory days well they'll pass you by

Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye

Glory days, glory days

Glory days well they'll pass you by

Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye

Glory days, glory days
