Nostalgic Songs | We’ll Go Back To High School

Are we still on for tonight
Will it be all wrong or right.
Will we see the break of day and the early light

Are we still going steady
Can I pick you up at seven
Is it too old fashion now to want to hold your hand

We’ll finish the dishes and put the kids to bed
and we’ll go back to high school
I’ll meet you under the bleachers
after biology class
and tell you if I love you
I’ll meet you under the bleachers
after biology class
and tell you if I love you

We could go to the roller rink
Do a dance at the kitchen sink
Maybe we’ll get a kiss good night
Will it all be wrong or right.

I met you at the football game
Picked you out of the crowd that came
You were wearing a dress of blue
There was nothing that I could do.

We’ll finish the dishes and put the kids to bed
and we’ll go back to high school
I’ll meet you under the bleachers
after biology class
and tell you if I love you
I’ll meet you under the bleachers
after biology class
and tell you if I love you
and tell you if I love you
and tell you that I love you

Preacherman Don’t Care About My Soul No More | Song by David Michael Jackson

Preacherman don’t care about my soul no more.
He’s not knocking at my door
He’s too busy getting out the vote
to care about my soul anymore.
to care about my soul anymore

He used to send the kids around
with a pamplet and a smile
Now they’re not here, they’re downtown.
My soul’s been lonely for awhile
My soul’s been lonely for awhile

He used to sing Just As I Am
after every sermon he preached
He’d tell my soul to come on down.
Now it’s Onward Christian soldiers he sings
it’s Onward Christian soldiers he sings

Preacherman used to go out of his way
He said his good news was mine
but now my soul is a waiting in
the self salvation line
the self salvation line

Oh tell the devil to hold the door
for a soul the preacherman he said he cared for.
Running my country is more important you see
than my soul and little ol’ me
my soul and little ol’ me

Preacherman don’t care about my soul no more.
He’s not knocking at my door
He’s too busy getting out the vote
to care about my soul anymore
to care about my soul anymore
