Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash - Two Old Army Pals lyrics
[Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash - Two Old Army Pals lyrics]
Yes, we know we should have been home
By this time, my darling, yesterday
See, we were rolling across Texas
And this big old memory jumped in our way
Well we stopped off down in Austin
Just to spend a little time with
This old friend of mine
Then we had a few beers
And a whole lotta laughs
Honey, we forgot about the time
Well we told old Willie we'd set a spell
But you know how he is, he made us stay
And he took us to this honky-tonk
To hear them country guitar-pickеrs play
Well we must have had thеir table
'Cause these two ol' girls come
In and sat right down
But you know me and Carl
We woke up only after Georgetown
Now you take two old army pals
And a couple of good ol' gals
And that's a mighty good way to make
A good man late for home
But honey, we're feelin' fine
And I'm rollin' on down the line
No, we ain't mad
And y'all ain't done no wrong
Yeah, this big old gal named Bertha
Swore up and down that she was kin to me
Said her daddy had a brother
Who had moved away somewhere to Tennessee
Well we must have talked for hours
But I never did convince her completely
Yeah, you get mighty friendly
When you're off discussing your
Old family tree
Just take here two old army pals
And a couple of good ol' gals
And that's a mighty good way to make
A good man late for home
But honey, we're feelin' fine
And I'm rockin' on down the line
No, we ain't mad
And y'all ain't done no wrong
By this time, my darling, yesterday
See, we were rolling across Texas
And this big old memory jumped in our way
Well we stopped off down in Austin
Just to spend a little time with
This old friend of mine
Then we had a few beers
And a whole lotta laughs
Honey, we forgot about the time
Well we told old Willie we'd set a spell
But you know how he is, he made us stay
And he took us to this honky-tonk
To hear them country guitar-pickеrs play
Well we must have had thеir table
'Cause these two ol' girls come
In and sat right down
But you know me and Carl
We woke up only after Georgetown
Now you take two old army pals
And a couple of good ol' gals
And that's a mighty good way to make
A good man late for home
But honey, we're feelin' fine
And I'm rollin' on down the line
