Bowling Down Memory Lane

BOWLING DOWN MEMORY LANE
© Jim Molinelli, Shawn Molinelli

[Verse 1]
Another Tuesday night, in this map dot town
We’re two games in, and I’m two beers down
The jukebox wails while we bowl every frame
And the pins explode here at Memory Lane

[Verse 2]
A sub took your spot on our mixed league team
Since you left I’m doing so much better it seems.
I’m laughing again, and getting on with my life,
Now I even look forward to each Tuesday night.

[Chorus]
I’m bowling down Memory Lane,
Without you rolling around in my brain.
I’m done striking you from my mind,
I’m even enjoying the regular grind.
As I’m bowling down Memory Lane.

[Verse 3]
As our third game starts, I hear those words in my ear,
That song on the jukebox, that’s your song I hear.
I’m over your leaving, feel so much better, you know?
But I guess that old song ain't quite let me go...

[Chorus]
I’m bowling down Memory Lane,
Without you rolling around in my brain.
I’m done striking you from my mind,
I’m even enjoying the regular grind.
As I’m bowling down Memory Lane.

[Verse 4]
I walk to the jukebox, and I play your song loud,
Then, when it starts, for once there’s no cloud!
Now for the perfect way to end this ol’ night…
I roll my ball toward the pocket... It’s a strike!

[Chorus]
I’m bowling down Memory Lane,
Without you rolling around in my brain.
I’m done striking you from my mind,
I’m even enjoying the regular grind.
As I’m bowling down Memory Lane.
