We were way too young a couple of crazy kids
They said it was a fairy tale land we were living in
And looking back you know we were pretty green
But aren't you glad we were smart enough to be that naive?
Stepping out on a limb
Just think if we had listened to them

1st Chorus
We'd never dance under the stars in Colorado
Or took that drive across the Rio Grande
We'd never laid eyes on that California sunset
Or dipped our toes in that Monterey sand
There'd be no yesterday
And baby, we couldn't say
Hey, hey, we did it our way
Hey, hey, we did it our way

Everybody tried to tell us where to plant our seed
They just couldn't understand that we had to spread our wings
All we needed to pass life's little test
Was a second-hand car and a place to lay our heads
I thank God for you
Baby, I knew it was true

2nd Chorus
We'd never walked the streets of Albuquerque
Or took that trip anywhere boudns
Must have been fate forgetting that road map
We got lost and found this little town
What a perfect place and we can sit back and say
Hey, hey, we did it our way
Hey, hey, we did it our way

1st Chorus

We were way too young, a couple crazy kids
They said it was a fairy tale land we were living in
