Lyrics Brett Eldredge

Brett Eldredge

Brother

Brother, I think it's time we talked

Why do guys like us spend most our lives playing it tough?

Oh, and brother, I see this world's got you down

You look like you look when you got your heart broke

In 7th grade by Katie Brown

We played ball out in the yard

We raced our bikes, we wrecked our cars

Stayed out late in midnight bars

Oh, we got drunk out in the fights

Fell for the same girl once or twice

And somehow made it out alive

But in the end, always there for each other

Oh, brother

When I couldn't see, you always found a way to believe in me

You were the quarterback when I rode the bench

The knuckleball nobody could hit

If you're the underdog, you're the comeback kid

You'll find a way to get through this

We played ball out in the yard

We raced our bikes, we wrecked our cars

Stayed out late in midnight bars

Oh, we got drunk out in the fights

Fell for the same girl once or twice

And somehow made it out alive

But in the end, always there for each other

Brother, oh, brother

I hope you know I'd take a bullet

Stand out on the frontline

Oh, life is short, don't you know it?

But everybody needs a partner in crime

You had my back when dad got sick

You being there's what did the trick

We both thought that that was it

Oh, you were my first call that night in June

You rushed in to my bail

We sure raise a lot of hell

I still make you swear to never tell my mother

Oh, we'll always be there for each other

Brother, oh, brother, yeah

Oh, brother
