Lyrics
Castle - Lyrics by Jeff Bump, Music by Mill's End, copyright 2012
17 and on the road, headed with my friends up to the Castle
Try and avoid the traffic jam, get inside the gates after five
Sometimes the fun, the fun of being young is doing all the things you're not supposed to
Drink a beer or maybe two, talking to that girl I had my eye on
Jason just got in a fight, let's get out of here before the cops come
Music is loud, it surrounds the crowd, saw my first concert at the Castle
At the Castle
Whole life in front of you now, not thinking about the things that really matter
Thinking about the times we had, looking back now just makes me sad
Def Leppard, Metallica, thinking about the concerts that we saw
Trouble is fun when you don't get caught, saw all those concerts at the Castle
Music is loud and it surrounds the crowd, saw my first concert at the Castle, at the Castle
