Troubadour-To-Door - I Was High at the Time

I WAS HIGH AT THE TIME

My very first beer and my very first kiss
Happened on the very same night
Rollin' on that hill by the baseball field
Goody two-shoes came untied

First day of 9th grade
That boy turned away
Lesson number one: Drunken passion fades!

But I was high at the time, so don't blame me
I was high at the time, so have a little sympathy
Hold me irresponsible
That shit I did was not my fault
And it felt so fine
But I was high at the time

Flash forward one year, I'm fifteen
Shootin' pool in a football bar
Tequila sunrise and his big brown eyes
And I was seein' stars

Drove the porcelain bus
He held my ponytail
Lesson number two: Good girls and bad boys fail!

But I was high at the time, so don't blame me
I was high at the time, so have a little sympathy
Hold me irresponsible
That shit I did was not my fault
And it felt so fine
But I was high

Mushrooms, Mexican, maybe some hash
Lookin' for the meaning of life
Who woulda guessed that getting trashed
Might make it hard to find

My very last high
I hit bottom hard
Lesson number three: Sometimes ya gotta fall apart

Yeah I was high at the time, but times have changed
Yeah I was high at the time, but now I like seein' straight
You can hold me responsible
This shit I do is all my fault
And it feels so fine
'Cause I'm not high
I'm not high this time
One day at a time
