I always told myself to never hurt no one
But as I’m growing up I see just what I’ve done
I should apologize if I caused you any pain
I was no good at being nineteen anyway

In the name of rock and roll I played my first guitar
I met up with a band and we played this smoky bar
There was a woman there She could tell I was underage
I was no good at being nineteen anyway

Well, Mary’s never gonna forgive me
and I guess I’ll have to live with that
And Jessie’s still pissed about the money I owe him
but I swear to God one day I’m gonna pay him back
And Mike is probably gonna laugh at me when he hears this
He always knew I couldn’t keep it inside
Jamie, if you’re out there I hope you know
I never wanted us to fight and I’m sorry baby

The dance is over now Tomorrow’s all we got
We cry in our despair for what we are and what we’re not
Goodbye to our teenage years Goodbye to the plans we made
We were no good at being nineteen anyway
