Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Bare feet racing down that hill
Hand-me-down bike, bent back wheel
Mama on the porch yelling, "Slow down!"
We just laughed, dust all over this town
[Chorus]
We had grass stains, fireflies
Skinned-up knees and big blue skies
Nothing in our pockets but time to burn
Mud on our faces, sun on our shoulders
Every summer day felt a little bit bolder
Playing in the yard like the world would never turn
(yeah, let it turn)
[Verse 2]
Sprinkler making diamonds in the air
Cardboard box turned rocket chair
Sidewalk chalk on the old driveway
Spelled our names like they’d never fade away
[Chorus]
We had grass stains, fireflies
Skinned-up knees and big blue skies
Nothing in our pockets but time to burn
Mud on our faces, sun on our shoulders
Every summer day felt a little bit bolder
Playing in the yard like the world would never turn
(let it turn, let it turn)
[Bridge]
Now I drive past that little white gate
Swing still squeaks, paint still flaked
Close my eyes, I’m right back there
Chasing you through the evening air
[Chorus]
With grass stains, fireflies
Skinned-up knees and big blue skies
Nothing in our pockets but time to burn
Mud on our faces, sun on our shoulders
Every summer day felt a little bit bolder
Playing in the yard like the world would never turn
Playing in the yard like the world would never turn
(oh, let it turn)

Style
country, Bright, bouncy country shuffle with acoustic guitar strums, brushed snare, and upright bass. Male vocals with a friendly twang, light fiddle fills between phrases. Choruses lift with stacked harmonies and claps, bridge leans on a warm pedal steel swell. Keep it tight and sunny, like a front-porch singalong., happy
