Lyrics for Song: Partners, Brothers and Friends
Lyrics for Album: Plain Dirt Fashion / Partners, Brothers & Friends [1994]
The promoter says he wants to cancel,
Cause there ain't enough tickets sold
The air conditioner on the bus just broke
And I can't shake this cold.
The single lost the bullet,
The singer's losin' his wife;
Well I might be crazy but I wouldn't change
A single thing about this life.
Sometimes we feel like champions,
Sometimes we just can't win,
Sometimes our records hit the top of the charts
Or the discount bargain bins.
Through almost 30 years of touring
We've remained partners, brothers, and friends!
We keep it together cause we love it and we're sure
We're gonna be big time before it all ends.
As long as Johnny's got his fiddle,
And Jimmy's got his drums along,
Then Jeffrey and me and Bobby will be
Singing all our favorite songs!
Catch the fire from the folks in the front row
Fan the flames as the beat gets strong!
It's great to be a part of something
So good that's lasted so long.
Well I saw a story in the paper,
Suddenly the band's big news.
The critics all like our records just fine
But they seem a bit confused.
Is it folk or rock or country? Whoa!
Seems like everybody cares but us...
So just leave us an early wakeup call
So we don't miss the bus.
As long as Johnny's got his fiddle,
And Jimmy's got his drums along,
Then Jeffrey and me and Bobby will be
Singing all our favorite songs!
Catch the fire from the folks in the front row
Fan the flames as the beat gets strong!
It's great to be a part of something
So good that's lasted so long.
The band says it can't stand my latest song, it's too personal
But my first wife's second marriage blew up
She had to get the dang thing annulled.
Well if that ain't something to sing about,
Well you tell me what is...
And we'll give it a beat and put it on the street,
And we just might have another hit.
Well, As long as Johnny's got his banjo,
And Jimmy's got his drums along,
Then Jeffrey and me and Bobby will be
Singing all our favorite songs!
Catch the fire from the folks in the front row
Fan the flames as the beat gets strong!
It's great to be a part of something
So good that's lasted so long.
Yeah, it's great to be a part of something
So good that's lasted so long!
