Me and JB and Sonny, we grew up on the buddy plan
|
Weren't we some bad mothers, closer than brothers
|
Had a rockin' little three-piece band
|
Yeah we wrote a lot of songs about women
|
Then we tried to sing 'em pretty for the girls
|
Pushin' everythin' we did to the limit
|
Livin' right out on the edge of the world.
|
|
I recall on summer night at a party
|
We were sophomores hangin' out by the lake
|
I got off on some wine with a waitress
|
Sonny had a girlfriend that just couldn't wait
|
JB hooked up around midnight
|
With an ugly girl from up in the city
|
He downed every can of beer in the cooler
|
Just tryin' to drink that poor thing pretty.
|
|
Hey me and the boys we made a lot of noise
|
And we, sang all our songs for free
|
We partied through college, acquired some knowledge
|
Never did get a degree
|
We did it our way lookin' back on the good days
|
There's still not a lot I regret
|
Nights I Can't Remember, Friends I'll Never Forget.
|
|
I grew up and got married, took a job with the FPL
|
Sonny's got a good life, a baby and a good wife
|
And everyday he carries the mail
|
JB is a cross-country trucker
|
And he called last night from South Carolina
|
He said I fallen in love with a waitress
|
That I met at a Waffle House diner.
|
|
He said the years seem to roll on faster
|
Than they did back when we were kids
|
Then we need us a break from the grindstone
|
That's exactly what we did.
|
|
We put in a phone call to Sonny
|
Then we stayed out all night long
|
We drank a few cold ones, then told a few old ones
|
And sang another verse to the song.
|
|
Yeah we were boys who made a lot of noise
|
And we, sang all our songs for free
|
We partied through college, acquired some knowledge
|
Never did get a degree
|
We did it our way lookin' back on the good days
|
There's still not a lot I regret
|
There's some Nights I Can't Remember, with Friends I'll Never Forget.
|
|
All those Nights I Can't Remember, Friends I'll Never Forget.
