  • When I was a kid in Liverpool, the rain never stopped
    But the sun always shone in my mind
    In Liverpool, the streets were long and wide
    There were places we could hide in our mind
    Walking to Sefton Park and it's a beautiful day
    But we should be going to school, but anyway

    Me and the boys, me and the gang living out fantasies
    Breaking the rules, acting like fools
    That's how it was for me
    How was it for you?

    At H. Hunt and Son in Liverpool, an apprentice engineer
    But I had something very clear in my mind
    In Liverpool, music was my goal
    In my heart and in my soul and in my mind
    Walking to the Iron Door on a beautiful night
    Well, I knew I wanted more, it felt so right

    Me and the girl, me and the band living our fantasies
    Breaking the rules, acting like fools
    That's how it was for me
    How was it for you?

    How was it for you?
    How was it for you?
    How was it for you?

    Me and the boys, me and the band living our fantasies
    Breaking the rules, acting like fools
    That's how it was for me

    Me and the boys, me and the band living our fantasies
    Breaking the rules, acting like fools
    That's how it was for me
    How was it for you? Writer/s: David Stewart, Richard Starkey
