Back before birthdays were something she dreads Back before children had settled her friends Back when the radio spoke to her heart Oh girls, they wanna have fun
Oneida, I know that I'm younger than most But I'm willing if you've got the time To buy us some wine
I lay here awake and I laugh at her jokes She is referencing movies I'm too young to know And I'm letting her lead as we dance in the dark Oh girl, I'm falling in love
Oneida, I know that I'm younger than most But I'm willing if you've got the time To buy us some wine I'll bring my guitar I've been workin' on learning that song you've been dying to sing About weddings and rings
Pleading my case with the bro at the door Buddy, I know we've been through this before You can't let me go in but if I wait outside Will you give her a message for me?
Tell her, "Oneida, I know that I'm younger than most But I'm willing if you've got the time To buy us some wine I'll bring my guitar I've been workin' on learning that song you've been dying to sing About weddings and rings I'll strum in the back And come in where I can harmonize on a line or two But this song's all you"
