High School Nights Lyrics By Dave Edmunds

    you wake up in the morning and another night’s gone
    you tumble out of bed and turn the radio on
    but you just can’t think about the day to come
    cause you’re thinking about them high school nights

    making all the moves gotta do it in style
    it merely makes the high school day worthwhile
    when the work piles high
    and the day drags by
    and you never see the end in sight

    i remember those high school nights
    we had it made them high school nights
    those were the days them high school nights
    you will remember all your life

    the day moves ahead about a lightyear long
    you hurry through the halls singing your school song
    but you just can’t follow what the hell’s going on
    cause you’re thinking ’bout them high school nights

    staring out the window in a daydream world
    looking at the parking lot checking out the girls
    there’s a lesson going on but it ain’t getting heard
    cause you’re wondering what’ll happen tonight

    i remember those high school nights
    i’m gonna miss those high school nights
    they were the best those high school nights
    you will remember all your life

    high school nights we had it made
    them high school nights those were the days
    them high school nights could be the best days of your life

    that’s how it used to be pity it couldn’t last
    better days have stopped the flow of parties and livin’ fast

    the dean’s in his office and the writing’s on the wall
    some of us will make it and someone’s gonna fall
    but it really don’t matter cause we’re gonna have a ball
    when we hit another high school night

    i still remember those high school nights
    we had it made them high school nights
    those were the days them high school nights
    you will remember all your life

    high school nights i’m gonna miss those high school nights
    they were the best those high school nights
    could be the best days of your life

    high school nights we had it made them high school nights
    those were the days them high school nights
    you will remember all your life
