I was away in some distant country |
|
When a friend phoned through the news |
|
The line was bad and I couldn't hear |
|
The story was confused |
|
They say he'd been out drinking |
|
And having your usual wild time |
|
You were driving back just a little too fast |
|
Did never made it home |
|
I remember the miles we traveled around |
|
How we traveled through the night |
|
We'd pass each other and flash our lights |
|
Just to keep ourselves awake |
|
We always shared our money |
|
We were always broke it seemed |
|
But fame was 'round the corner |
|
And fortune, so we dreamed |
|
When I'm drinking in some good time bar |
|
I look around for you |
|
It's a habit I've got 'cause I can't forget |
|
And I'm wishing it wasn't true |
|
You'd be in a corner |
|
Behind a drink or two |
|
You'd be swapping songs and having a good time |
|
Like we used to do |
|
Let's both get drunk and have a good time |
|
Like we used to do |
|
Like we used to do |
