Glory Days
Glee Cast Lyrics

Yeah, c'mon
Puck is getting the boys pumped up and ready to tell their story

I had a friend, was a big baseball player Back in high school He could throw that speed ball by you Make you look like a fool, boy
Puck is reminiscing about an old friend who was once an impressive baseball player with an incredible pitch

Saw him the other night at this roadside bar I was walking in, he was walking out We went back inside, sat down, had a few drinks But all he kept talking about
Puck ran into his old friend at a bar, they grabbed a few drinks together, but the friend spent the whole time reminiscing about their days of glory

Glory days, well they'll pass you by Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye Glory days, glory days
The refrain of the song. It's all about how your days of greatness and success will pass you by quickly and sometimes you don't even realize it's happening

Well, there's a girl that lives up the block Back in school, she could turn all the boys' heads Sometimes, on a Friday I'll stop by and have a few drinks After she put her kids to bed
Puck knows a girl from back in school who was once very attractive to all the guys. He likes to stop by and see her occasionally, after she's put her kids to bed

Her husband Bobby, well they split up I guess it's two years gone by now We just sit around talking about the old times She says, when she feels like crying, she starts laughing
The girl Puck knows and her husband split up years ago, and when they get together nowadays, they mostly just talk about their old memories

Thinking 'bout glory days, well they'll pass you by Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye Glory days, glory days
Repeating the refrain again - this time in Finn's voice

Woo, think I'm going down to the well tonight I'm going to drink until I get my fill And I hope when I get old, I don't sit around thinking about it But I probably will
Puck is planning to drink a lot tonight and hopes he won't look back on his life with regret - but he thinks he probably will

Yeah, just sitting back, trying to recapture A little of the glory of Well, the time slips away and leaves you with nothing, mister But boring stories of
Finn is trying to reclaim a bit of his old glorious days, but time is passing by too quickly and he's only left with the boring stories to share

Well, they'll pass you by Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye Glory days, glory days What about this All right, ooh yeah All right Woah, c'mon now Oh yeah, all right It's alright Ooh yeah, oh yeah All right, all right C'mon now Oh yeah Oh yeah
Another quick repeat of the refrain and the boys singing some positive interjections

All right boys! Keep rockin' now! Woo, glory days!
Puck is rallying the boys and showing some enthusiasm for their glory days
