F G C
Didn't we have us a ball?
Well I guess you could say that I've lived my life.
I've been wild, I've been crazy, I've been free.
Been places and seen faces that I won't forget.
I hope they won't forget me.
Been out Saturday night honky-tonkin', two-steppin', fightin'.
I'm lucky I lived through it all.
But I'd rather have memories that I can take with me.
Didn't we have us a ball?
