Me and Britney

Me and Britney used to sit on the front porch drinking lemonade

Talking about things no one else was ever supposed to hear

In the summer shade

She said she was gonna be a movie star

And I said she was crazy

Catching dreams and fireflies in a jar

Just me and Britney






Oh, oh

We were babies, we were beautiful and free

Oh, oh

There was nothing that was out of reach

For me and Britney






She never made it to Hollywood but she made it to Memphis

And this little old town just hasn’t been the same since

That boy she went ran off with, well, I thought he was crazy

Maybe I was just jealous that he'd come between me and Britney






Oh, oh

She was in love, she was beautiful and free

Oh, oh

She was always so much braver than me






When the phone rang in the middle of the night

Before she said a word I knew it was her

She said I’m sorry for waking you up but I didn’t know who else to call

Or where else to go






Me and Britney sat down on the front porch

Talking about love and how it changes things

Changes people and it changes names and everything but me and Britney






Oh, oh

We’re not as young, but we’re still beautiful and free

Oh, oh

Even when we’re old, we’re still going to be






Me and Britney sitting on the front porch drinking lemonade

Talking about things no one else was ever gonna hear

In the summer shade
