Few Good Friends
By now I should be three hours down the interstate
They talked me into stay one more night to celebrate
It's hard to believe the boys are raising a drink
'Cause Jimmy's twenty-four
It's rare that we're all in the same place anymore
Well, tomorrow night it's back to the grind
Got a downtown show in the Fort Worth lights
Singing these songs to make sure the bills get paid
When the crowds go home
When the last note plays
When the lights go out
On an empty stage
Nah, it don't matter (it don't matter)
How far I go
Or how long it's been
If I've got a back porch waiting at home
And a few good friends
Everybody's trying to find their place here in the real world
Some still raising hell
Some settled down with a good girl
Yeah, we're talking, getting rich paying bills
Buying cars and falling in love
Acting like we know but we're all still just growing up
Well, tomorrow night it's back to the grind
Got a downtown show in the Birmingham lights
Singing these songs to make sure the bills get paid
But when the crowds go home
When the last note plays
When the lights go out
On an empty stage
Nah, it don't matter (it don't matter)
How far I go
Or how long it's been
If I've got a back porch waiting at home
And a few good friends
(Yeah)
Just string lights hanging over some two-by-fours
Funny how the little things turn into so much more
Yeah, the stories stay the same, the world fades away
Laughter's loud and the drinks are cold
They're the spoke in the wheel that keeps me rolling down the road
But when the crowds go home
When the last note plays
When the lights go out
On an empty stage
Nah, it don't matter (it don't matter)
How far I go
Or how long it's been
'Cause I've got a back porch waiting at home
And a few good friends
(Long as I've got a few good friend)
(Long as I've got a few good friends)
Oh, and a few good friends
(Long as I've got a few good friend)
(Long as I've got a few good friends)
(Long as I've got a few good friend) Yeah, a few good friends
(Long as I've got a few good friends) a few good friends
(Long as I've got a few good friend)
(Long as I've got a few good friends)
