Partners, Brothers and Friends

The promoter says he wants to cancel\n'Cause there ain’t enough tickets sold\nThe air conditioner on the bus just broke\nAnd I can’t shake this cold\nThe single lost the bullet\nThe singer’s losin' his wife\nWell, I might be crazy but I wouldn’t change\nA single thing about this life\nSometimes we feel like champions\nSometimes we just can’t win\nSometimes our records hit the top of the charts\nOr the discount bargain bins\nThrough almost 20 years of touring\nWe’ve remained partners, brothers and friends\nWell, we keep it together 'cause we’re sure we’re gonna be\nBig time before it all ends\nJust as long as Johnny’s got his fiddle\nAnd Jimmy’s got his drums along\nThen Jeffrey and me and Bobby will be\nSinging all our favorite songs\nCatch the fire from the folks in the front row\nFan the flames as the beat gets strong\nIt’s great to be a part of something so good\nThat’s lasted so long\nWell I saw a story in the paper\nSuddenly the band’s big news\nThe critics all like our records just fine\nBut they seem a bit confused\nIs it folk or rock or country\nWhoa, seems like everybody cares but us\nSo just leave us an early wakeup call\nSo we don’t miss the bus\nJust as long as Johnny’s got his fiddle\nAnd Jimmy’s got his drums along\nThen Jeffrey and me and Bobby will be\nSinging all our favorite songs\nWe’ll catch the fire from the folks in the front row\nFan the flames as the beat gets strong\nIt’s great to be a part of something so good\nThat’s lasted so long\nThe band says it can’t stand my latest song\nIt’s too personal\nBut my first wife’s second marriage blew up\nThey had to get the dang thing annulled\nWell, if that ain’t something to sing about\nWell you tell me what is\nAnd we’ll give it a beat and put it on the street\nAnd we just might have another hit\nJust as long as Johnny’s got his banjo\nAnd Jimmie’s got his harps along\nThen Jeffrey and me and Bobby will be\nSinging all our favorite songs\nWe’ll catch the fire from the folks in the front row\nFan the flames as the beat gets strong\nIt’s great to be a part of something so good\nThat’s lasted so long\nYeah, it’s great to be a part of something so good\nThat’s lasted so long
