We were like a pair of shoes, you never saw one of us
|
Without the other, we were brothers but we weren't kin
|
Those neighborhood football games was the only time
|
You might ever see us on different teams back then
|
Ah we'd cuss one another for all that the other was worth
|
But in out hearts we were only cussing each other's shirt
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I wore blue and he wore brown
|
But we both knew the colors didn't count
|
At the end of the day we'd walk away
|
There was no doubt that we were friends for life
|
I wore blue and he wore brown
|
|
We lost touch, i got a job working for the state
|
He did a crime, got some time, oh i'd never thought
|
That waitin' for the transfer bus to arrive at gate number one
|
When it pulled up he'd step off in cuffs, oh how i fought
|
Back the tears as i led him down to cell block three
|
He said i know you're just doing your job, as i turned the key
|
And i just like those football games that we played in
|
There we stood on different sides again
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I wore blue and he wore brown
|
But we both knew the colors didn't count
|
At the end of the day we'd walk away
|
There was no doubt that we were friends for life
|
I wore blue and he wore brown
|
|
True friends are few and far between
|
But nothing comes between true friends
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I wore blue and he wore brown
|
But we both knew the colors didn't count
|
At the end of the day we'd walk away
|
There was no doubt
|
I wore blue and he wore brown
|
I wore blue and he wore brown
|
