We were wild, we were reckless
We were crazy, we were careless
Every weekend, every pay cheque
We were good at wasting time,
Chasing down a feelin'
Always hangin' from the ceilin'
We were fightin' for our freedom
Every Friday night
We would think too little
We would drink too much
Back when we were renegades on the run
We wanted lightning in a bottle
Livin' life full throttle,
Back when we had nothing
But we wanted it all,
Nights would last forever
Always thought we'd be together
You and me
Back when we, we were wannabes
We were wannabes
Yeah we, we were wannabes
We were rulin' heartbreakers
We were good time chasers
Proud to be called trouble-makers
Always dodging blue lights
We were rough, we were rebels
Always runnin' with the Devil
Take it to another level
Had to chase that high
We would think too little
We would drink too much
Back when we were renegades on the run
We wanted lightning in a bottle
Livin' life full throttle
Back when we had nothing
But we wanted it all
Nights would last forever
Always thought we'd be together
You and me
Back when we, we were wannabes
We were wannabes
Yeah we, we were wannabes
Yeah, yeah
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
We wanted lightning in a bottle
Livin' life full throttle
Back when we had nothing
But we wanted it all
Nights would last forever
Always thought we'd be together
You and me
Back when we, we were wannabes
We were wannabes
Yeah we, we were wannabes
We, we were wannabes
Yeah we, we were wannabes
We, we were wannabes
Yeah we, we were wannabes
We, we were wannabes
Yeah, we were wannabes
