The Lowdown Drifters - We Three Kings Lyrics

Three white knights, on huffy bikes
The freedom of the road
Fly like the wind, and back again
Before the street lights get turned on
We were old Duke Wayne, out across the plains
Cap guns and old camo
Though it was small, we thought it was all
The kingdom we'd ever need

Hand me down cleats, and playing in the streets
And Friday night football
Learn how to drive, in a bench seat ride
The world gets a little less small
It was cowboy boots, and Sadie Hawkins suits
Pictures in a frame
Times they change, and hearts they break
But some things never will

Because we three kings, you know we had
Our moment in the sun
Could have been outlaws, still standing tall
Boys born on the run
It was small town lights, and Friday night fights
Sneaking in a back window
In a town this small, you're bound to fall
But we'll always be
We three kings
We three kings

Graduation came, and that night we sang
Back where I come from
Swore we'd never stay gone, but some moved on
To bright lights that never turn off
We drank our booze, like the fountain of youth
Held on maybe a little too long
But we couldn't stay away, from God's country
Where they welcome a sinner home

Because we three kings, you know we had
Our moment in the sun
Could have been outlaws, still standing tall
Boys born on the run
It was small town lights, and Friday night fights
Sneaking in a back window
In a town this small, you're bound to fall
But we'll always be
We three kings
We three kings

Someday there'll be three queens
And babies filling up small town dreams
But until that day we'll always be

Because we three kings, you know we had
Our moment in the sun
Could have been outlaws, still standing tall
Boys born on the run
It was small town lights, and Friday night fights
Sneaking in a back window
In a town this small, you're bound to fall
But we'll always be
We three kings
We three kings
