  • Bring that beat back to me again
    Take me back, take me back, can't catch me can't catch me
    Bring that beat back to me again
    Take me back, take me back, can't catch me, can't catch me

    Ride my bike down that old dirt hill (can't catch me)
    First time without my trainin' wheels
    First time I kissed you I lost my legs (can't catch me)
    Bring that beat back to me again

    Screamin', shoutin', louder innocence
    Days when all we did would never end

    Bring that beat back to me again
    Take me back, take me back, can't catch me can't catch me
    Bring that beat back to me again
    Take me back, take me back, can't catch me can't catch me

    Smokin' on the railroad bridge
    I used to ride my bike down that old dirt hill
    The first time I kissed you I lost my legs
    Bring that beat back to me again

    Screamin', shoutin', louder innocence
    Days when all we did would never end

    Screamin' down that old dirt hill
    Bring that beat back to me again

    Oh when it gets hard
    That's when the days I remember seem so far
    When I was just a kid that's what I miss
    When I was just a kid that's what I miss
    Take me back, Take me back to that beat again

    Smokin' on the railroad bridge
    Bring that beat back to me again (again)
    Bring that beat back to me again (can't catch me)
    Bring that beat back to me again
    First time all we were was good friends
    Bring that beat back to me again
    Bring that beat back to me again
    Bring that beat back to me again (can't catch me)
    Bring that beat back to me again
    Bring that beat back to me again

  • Cari from Canton, OhGood to know. I love this song and I never get to hear it in concert. It seems they always play it the day before or the day after I go to a show!
  • Matt from Chicago, IlI agree, it seems like a very influencile place in Dave's life

    "When I was just a kid
    That's what I miss
    Just a kid
    That's what I miss

    Oh take me back, take me back to that beat again
    Smoking under the railroad bridge"
