While other girl's may have been helping their mother cook
No doubt i was either hunting, fishing or with my grandpaw getting the need for speed
Back in the day <<---(That's another way of saying "when I was young")
Back in the day my grandpaw was sheriff of a small town for a long time
Back then my granny cooked for the inmates, my grandpaw and I would
take the food to them.. This was sometimes too tempting for some
When that big concrete door opened, there stood one very large man and me
Although my grandpaw was a very large man..
Well i guess they figured if they got out of arms length they could out run him
So they would run and the "CHASE WAS ON" .. when we got tired of chasing him on foot, we got in the old malibu! Me with thorns in my feet from the foot race earlier and my grandmaw putting some thorn's in my grandpaw's ears..As We raced through town looking for the runaway, while my grandmaw steady hollering "GET THAT GIRL HOME" on the radio
I will never forget the feeling i got from going fast.. "A Thrill"
It's like he knew that i was having the time of my life..
My grandpaw made me work very hard to pay for my first car.
I tried to get him to leave the spot light on it :) "My own muscle car"
He said he didn't want me putting anyone's eyes out with the spot light and removed it
I still get a thrill thinking about "Back In The Day"
