Partners Brothers And Friends

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 30 years of touring

We've remained partners, brothers, and friends

We keep it together cause we love it and we're sure

We'll be big time before it all ends.



Well you know you've got the nitty gritty

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

Seems like everybody cares but us

So just leave us an early wakeup call

So we don't miss the bus



Chorus



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



Chorus
