When I was seventeen
My blood was gasoline
No matter where I turned
I got my fingers burnedI wouldn't go back there if I could
I wouldn't go back there if I couldBut then I turned twenty one
No fear of anyone
I always let them know
If they were friend or foeI wouldn't go back there if I could
I wouldn't go back there if I couldI remember very well
Way back then I went through hell
Well, oh, wellI remember very well
Way back then I went through hell
Always thought I was smart
Never played it from the heartI never listened to
My daddy's point of view
And though I wish I had
Things they turned out so badI wouldn't go back there if I could
I wouldn't go back there if I could
I wouldn't go back there
I wouldn't go back there, noDon't ever go, don't ever go
Don't ever go back there
Don't ever go, don't ever go
Don't ever go back thereDon't ever go, don't ever go
Don't ever go back there
Don't ever go, don't ever go
Don't ever go back there againI'll never go, I'll never go
Don't go back there
I'll never go, I'll never go
