We were way too young a couple of crazy kids

They said it was a fairy-tale land we were livin' in

And lookin' back you know we were pretty green

Aren't you glad we were smart enough to be that naive

Steppin' out on the limb

Just think if we had listened to them.

Chorus

We'd never danced 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 seeds

They just couldnt undertand why 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 know our aim was true.

Chorus

We'd never walked the streets of albuquerque

Or took that trip anywhere bound

Must've been fate forgettin' 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.

We were way too young a couple of crazy kids

They said it was a fairy-tale land we were livin' in.

Hey, hey we did it our way ey, hey

Hey, hey we did it our way

We did it our way.

We'd never danced 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.
