From the recording A / B Test
Lyrics
When you and me were just seventeen
Man didn't we know everything?
Yeah we'd talk all night without a single care in the world
And we’d tell everyone at New Division
About who one day we’d become
And we’d talk all night about everything in the world...
Down here on the south side
We would run around in the sunshine
And play a little footy ’til there’s no light
Ooh the best days of our lives were right here on the south side
Staring at the girls in our headlights
And riding through the city on a slow ride
…The best days of our lives were on the south side…
Yeah well look at you now, you’re making us proud
Me and the boys from the old crowd
Still talk all night about how you found your place in the world...
Well, back here on the south side
We still run around in the sunshine
And play a little footy ’til there’s no light
Oh the best days of our lives...
Are still down here on the south side
Staring at the girls in our headlights
And riding through the city on a slow ride
…The best days of our live are still on the south side…
