Some people were asking for the lyrics so this is what I came up with. They're not perfect but pretty close. No man walks the chains on the railroad tracks Dead end kids who slip beneath the cracks We found time getting high We did our best to get by And we say goodbye to the way things were No one said that life would be so hard So I went out on stage with an old guitar I wrote a song with a stolen riff You ain't got a star, you ain't got shit And we say goodbye to the way things were Sometimes I think of when we were young We didn't have a care Sometimes I wish that life would just stand still We lit the fire when it all began Then we watched it all burn down again And we say goodbye to the way things were Sometimes I think of when we were young We didn't have a care I want to go back to a simple place in time As the night falls we shed a tear Watching freedoms disappear And we say goodbye to the way things were I surely struck my luck now and I found love I didn't know how fortunate that I was I said I'm old and to let go Til it's time to leave this world And we say goodbye to the way things were Sometimes I think of when we were young We didn't have a care Why do all good things come to an end? Like it was just yesterday Watching your dreams fade away And you say goodbye to the way things were And you say goodbye to the way things were
i dont know...i know times are tuff but i saw these guys and the Rev, about 30 yrs ago for $15. i am not paying 150.00. no doubt Mike and the boys were a Huge part of my life(56). but its time i stood aside and let the younger ones enjoy. anyhow. their music, however will play on eternity through my speakers
They don't put self made bands made of creativity heart and spirit in the hof they put fake Muppet bands in the hof that sold there souls and that were Cia projects to be honest bands like this are beautiful just where they are and just who they are 😊
Shoot I'm part of this I grew up in California I grew up with Orange County punk rock scene I I'm still impart at the scene with Fullerton and all the boys.. I know everybody's story.. They're all my bros I don't know Mike that good but I We used to record In the same studio in Fullerton casball studios..Is back in a day a punk rock days 80s im 65 years old now I love an listen to it all..I don't like the music that's out now its all fake brainwashing bullshit..
Ever since I seen Social Distortion open up for the Ramones decades ago, I have been a big fan. Seen them live so many times and they never let you down. The lyrics are the icing on the cake. Mike's lyrics can give you a visual of his life and many times our own lives. Long Live Social D!
Love this song. I can easily see this as being one of their staple songs and hearing it on the radio all the time. Got tix for this summers concert at Hampton Beach and I can't wait!
his little spiel reminds of when he beat the shit out of one of his fans for wearing the wrong hat to a concert with his security holding the guy down. good song writer but a shitty human being.
Amazing to witness the evolution of Mike Ness. He is still improving. I'm 34 years old but Social D is my favourite band by far. Privilege to have seen him in Zurich this year.
Can anyone get the lyrics? I'm not a native speaker, so I get like 70% of what Mike is singing. I am in love with this vocal line and I want to play and sing it, but I can't do it properly 😔 Please, help 🙏🙏🙏
I think it is very hard to get, too. he's mumbling words a lot (I assume lyrics are not finished anyway) and not a native speaker, too but here is what I get, maybe it fills some gaps... throwing rocks at trains on our railroad tracks? Dead end kids who slip beneath the cracks We spent our time getting high We did our best to get by And we say goodbye to the way things were No one said that life would be so hard I plan out my escape with an old guitar? I wrote a song to ???? if you aint got a song you aint got shit and to ? say goodbye to the way things were CHORUS: Sometimes i think of when we were young we .... ?? Sometimes i wish our life/the clock? would just stand still Let the fire ?? begin and we watch it all burn down again And we say goodbye to the way things were Sometimes i think of when we were young we .... ?? I wanna go back to a simpler place and time As the night falls we shed a tear Watching freedoms disappear And we say goodbye to the way things were Verse: ?????????????????? I didnt know how fortunate (that?) I was ???? to let go until it's time to leave this world and say goodbye to the way things were Sometimes i think of when we were young we .... ?? Why do all good things come to an end ??? was just yesterday Watching all ? drink the pain away? And we say goodbye to the way things were
First time hearing this!!! When is the new album out?

i think its all correct. thank u for the translation with this mumbling 👍
This is truly an awesome song, the lyrics hit so hard from a S.D fan from the old days, and getting older I feel the ever word. Thanks S.D

Gotta Give Mike Ness all the best
It’s criminal that Social Distortion is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
Seats taken by Dr dre and jay z my man

Bad ass song
Killer tune! Can't wait til the new album comes out!
his little spiel reminds of when he beat the shit out of one of his fans for wearing the wrong hat to a concert with his security holding the guy down. good song writer but a shitty human being.
Said it once and I’ll say it again, I can’t wait for this fucking song to be recorded and released. The new album will be well worth the wait
Social D is like whiskey the older the better

Ness is a poet, his lyrics resonate with the everyday man and woman! Social distortion is an amazing band
Amazing to witness the evolution of Mike Ness. He is still improving. I'm 34 years old but Social D is my favourite band by far. Privilege to have seen him in Zurich this year.
