Summer came too early Springtime came too late The weather went from freezing To bleached out summer days Hold up in your bedroom Hangin like two thieves Countin up the hours For the perfect time to leave Chorus: Woooo Hooo We're learning the hard way Woooo Hooo It just don't matter what they say Nightime through this desert Drivin straight out west Stop for gas and coffee You close your eyes for rest I wonder what your dreaming Why we're half way cross this bridge We've come too far too turn back We're just too close to quit Chorus: Woooo Hooo We're learning the hard way Woooo Hooo It just don't matter what they say Woooo Hooo We're learning the hard way Woooo Hooo Woooo Hooo Guitar Solo Pent up in your bedroom Hangin like two thieves Countin up the hours For the perfect time to leave Chorus: Woooo Hooo We're learning the hard way Woooo Hooo It just don't matter what they say Woooo Hooo We're learning the hard way Woooo Hooo Woooo Hooo
