Butch Walker - Black Leather Jacket lyrics

[Verse 1] I wore a black leather jacket way back in high school And man, lookin back at these pictures of us, we were so cool You were so hot in your pink lipstick Painted on the end of a lit cigarette And I loved you girl, yeah, I loved you girl [Chorus] And if I put it back on, I'm sixteen sittin next to you Down by the river you got the shivers, so I put it around you Were countin down the memories in the moonlight and red wine, vinyl static Three polaroids, two young hearts, and one real cool, black, leather jacket [Verse 2] A little tattered and torn, it still keeps me warm on a Friday night Bandana patch from kickin some a** in a frat boy fight You wore it in the stands at the football games Some ink beneath the sleeve, I still wear your name And I loved you girl, yeah, I still love you girl [Chorus] [Bridge] I know you grew up, I grew up, too You got two kids, hell, I got two kids, too Thank God they look like you [Chorus] And every night I put it back it on and I'm sixteen sittin next to you Down by the river if you get the shivers, I'll put it around you Were makin them memories in the moonlight and red wine, vinyl static Three words, two rings, and one real cool, black, leather jacket [Outro] Well, there's nothing in the world makes me feel more alive When its just you and me and the moon is high I slip into the sleeves and with your hand in mine I go back to the night when I fell into your eyes Two kids just fallin in love And here we are right now, good heavens above Its only gettin better, baby Its only getting better, baby I just love that black, leather jacket
