Me and Britney used to sit on the front porch drinking lemonade Talking about things no one else was ever supposed to hear In the summer shade She said she was gonna be a movie star And I said she was crazy Catching dreams and fireflies in a jar Just me and Britney
Oh, oh We were babies, we were beautiful and free Oh, oh There was nothing that was out of reach For me and Britney
She never made it to Hollywood but she made it to Memphis And this little old town just hasn’t been the same since That boy she went ran off with, well I thought he was crazy Maybe I was just jealous that he’d come between me and Britney
Oh, oh She was in love, she was beautiful and free Oh, oh She was always so much braver than me
When the phone rang in the middle of the night Before she said a word I knew it was her She said I’m sorry for waking you up but I didn’t know who else to call Or where else to go
Me and Britney sat down on the front porch Talking about love and how it changes things Changes people and it changes names and everything but me and Britney
Oh, oh We’re not as young, but we’re still beautiful and free Oh, oh Even when we’re old, we’re still gonna be
Me and Britney sitting on the front porch drinking lemonade Talking about things no one else was ever gonna hear in the summer shade
