In the Next Life

After one night in San marcos

Some 15 Years Ago

We had us a hell rasiing time

So we took it on the road

Broke and damn near homeless

Lost and stumbling around

But I think that when you struggle

That’s when you find your sound

I’ve seen love come and go

Lost some friends along the way

Had nobody at our shows

And the nights we didn’t get paid

There’s been bar tabs and b.s.

Choices, good and bad

But it’s all part of the story and the damn good luck we’ve had

Well we’re not sure how we got here

But somehow we stuck around

Some days I feel like we can fly

And some days I think we’ll drown

I guess what they say is true

All you need is one good friend

And in the next life, we wanna be ourselves again

Buddy what was it like to play the opry?

Hell, you tell me man, you’ve been there

You know I had to have a few drinks of courage

Yeah, me too, I was nervous as hell

And remember the Houston Rodeo

The time I opened up for The King

Yeah, man we made some damn fine memories

I know it’s hard to believe

Well we’re not sure how we got here

But somehow we stuck around

Some days I feel like we can fly

And some days I think we’ll drown

I guess what they say is true

All you need is one good friend

And in the next life, we wanna be ourselves again

My daddy is a hell raisin, good timing man

I was born the son of a preacher singing all those hymns

Got a little of both mixed up somewhere in these songs

But right or wrong, I know they’re proud of what we have become

Well we’re not sure how we got here

But somehow we stuck around

Some days I feel like we can fly

And some days I think we’ll drown

I guess what they say is true

All you need is one good friend

And in the next life, we wanna be ourselves again
