I was walking down the street
Looking at my feet
I didn’t have no shoes
On the way to school
Looking at the fool
And everybody knew
But it was all right
’cause my friends of mine
Knew i had a guitar
They knew i would play
Become a big star
And i would go so far
Remember the times
When i didn’t have a dime
We remember the times
When i didn’t have a dime
Those were the best days
Going down the street playing at the mall
On the cheap bikes
Looking for somebody to steel
Somebody to rob and somebody to fight
I didn’t know my name as well
As i knew my friends
But i knew we were so cool
Everybody wanted to play by their own rules
We didn’t go to school
Remember the time
When i didn’t have a dime
I remember the times
When i didn’t have a dime
Those were the best days
By the times i was 14 or 15
Trying to pass my driving test
The thing to do was to drive to school
’cause i could never win for best dressed
I drove a raggedy car
To sneaking to the bars
Young boy life has no stress
Watching cartoon
And popping balloons
That was the best
Remember the times
When i didn’t have a dime
I remember the times
When i didn’t have a dime
Those were the best days
