Running out into uncut fields, Telling stories that felt so real
Walking up to the five-and-dime, When the world was, when the world was nine
Power was out in the neighborhood, Candle lit up my bedroom
Times were easy and I was fine, When the world was, when the world was nine
Crawdad fishing in summer-time, Creek swimming past the pines, It's on my mind
Crawdad fishing in summer-time, Creek swimming past the pines, It's on my mind
Spent a buck at the antique store, Never once thought we were poor
Fell asleep dreaming I had time, When the world was, when the world was nine
Autumn came back in the night, Down the road you moved out of sight
Growing up came just in time, When the world was, when the world was nine
