Lyrics
AND THEN SOME
(Claire Ulanoff/Will Hopkins/Chip Martin)
Me and Scotty James chased freight trains on our bikes
Tearin' 'cross that trestle in the middle of the night
Both hands held up in the air, eyes closed on a dare
You had to prove that you weren't scared
We were ten we were men ...and then some
There wasn't nothing we wouldn't try
Wasn't nothing we couldn't do
Flying too close to the sun
Racing rings around the moon
We were handfuls from the start
Bullets blazing from a gun
Just as wild as we were young...and then some
Me and Scotty turned eighteen, we joined the Corps
Just like my daddy and his daddy did before
Camp Lejeune sure kicked our ass, mud and blood and jumping jacks
We couldn't wait to hit Iraq
We were lean, we were mean...and then some
(chorus)
One night in a fire fight I saw Scotty fall
He gave his all and then some
Yeah, I still think of him and remember when
(chorus)
If we could go back I'd give anything
And everything...and then some
Me and Scotty James chased freight trains on our bikes
