I got some backside discipline

From shattering the window with a baseball

Had to stay after class

Call mom and dad made me tell 'em how I mouthed off

And I got this scar and broke my arm when I tried to jump that fence

Man, I hurt from it

But yeah, I learned from it

Like that summer cutting grass

Savin' cash to buy that truck I wrecked in three months

Or the time I got sick in my backyard

For a first dip, it was way too much

And I guess dad really did count the beers in the basement fridge

He got stern from it

But yeah, I learned from it

Yeah, we learn from it

All of 'em days when we were young and wild

Yeah, we turned up in that little town on all those Friday nights

'Cause growing up with nothing to do makes you play with fire a little

'Til we get burned from it

But yeah, we learn, yeah, we learn from it

Yeah, it's all, out of sight out of mind

Just looking for a story to tell

And all that time we were killin' time

Mama prayed we didn't kill ourselves

'Cause we all got a story striking out lookin'

A bad first kiss

But when you're seventeen, it's everything

But now looking back on it

Yeah, we learn from it

All of 'em days when we were young and wild

Yeah, we turned up in that little town on all those Friday nights

'Cause growing up with nothing to do makes you play with fire a little

'Til we get burned from it

But yeah, we learn, yeah we learn from it

Yeah, we learn

I guess sometimes the raisin' hell does the raisin' up, it's true

It ain't about the mistakes you make

It's the mistakes that make you

Learn from it

All of 'em days when we were young and wild

Yeah, we turned up in that little town on all those Friday nights

'Cause growing up with nothing to do makes you play with fire a little

'Til we get burned from it

But yeah we learn, yeah, we learn from it

Yeah, we learn from it

You learn
