about

Tim Rigby is a song about missing the days when all I (Chris) worried about was skateboarding. I remember there was this guy Tim Rigby who owned this skate shop called Ohio Surf and Skate. He was the nicest dude. He would give us free stickers and we always looked up to him. he seemed like he had the coolest job. Unfortunately the shop eventually closed down. But I'll never forget what he did for the skateboard scene in the nineties and all the rad pro skate board rider demos he hosted.

The 90's! We told you we were old a few songs ago, didn't we?

lyrics

waking up
on a summer morning
I call you up
and we ride all day long
no bills to pay
no time to come home
I know the latest tricks from watching videos
and I'd have kept it up
if not for one thing

I'm not seventeen anymore
and I sure feel it when I get on the board
don't break a leg cause you can't work
don't come home late don't be a jerk

well my old man
he used to poke fun
cause I didn't like cars
and I didn't like guns
but when you get older
some things start to change
I learned to really like cars
and now sometimes I skate

I'm not seventeen anymore
and I sure feel it when I get on the board
don't break a leg cause you can't work
don't come home late don't be a jerk

I'll always remember the good old days
we had our problems but we really had it made
the only thing I ever cared about were shoes
board sizes and bones brigade
so when I grow up and you ask me
what did I really want to be
it was Tony, Plan B and Danny Way

Sometimes I just want to skate

I'll always remember the good old days
we had our problems but we really had it made
the only thing I ever cared about were shoes
board sizes and bones brigade
so when I grow up and you ask me
what did I really want to be
it was Tony, Plan B and Danny Way
it was Tim Rigby from Ohio Surf and Skate
