I spent my lifetime wishin' the waitress would come around |
|
Tellin' jokes and shootin' pool on the other side of town |
|
When the whistle blows at five o'clock there's only one place i'll be found |
|
Down at ernie's icehouse liftin' longnecks to that good old country sound |
|
And talkin' 'bout the good old times |
|
Braggin' on how it used to be |
|
But i've worn out the same old lines |
|
And now it seems nothing's news to me |
|
There's nothin' like a steel guitar cryin' in the night |
|
There's nothin' like a sawdust floor and a good old friendly fight |
|
I'd finally find my way back home and you'd patch up my face |
|
But that was another time and another place |
|
Repeat chorus |
|
And now we're talkin' 'bout the good old times... |
|
I wonder how i came to be the know-it-all i am |
|
And how the world ever got used to me |
|
Repeat chorus |
