Hayes Carll - Good Friends lyrics

[Hayes Carll - Good Friends lyrics]

We used to run around skippin'
School and drinkin' beer
One drink and the good lord would
Get us out of here
But now those days are gone
And everything has changed
It's all been turned around
Everybody's rearranged

Hey, hey where did all my good friends go?
Maybe someplace far away
Hey, hey where did all my good friends go?

Well Doug he went to prison
For sellin' all his pot
And Rick's in California bein'
Somethin' that he's not
And Rob he went to law school
We're all glad he did
But every time I call I end
Up talking to his kid
Hey, hey where did all my good friends go?
Maybe someplace far away
Hey, hey where did all my good friends go?

Well Bo he joined the navy
To run around and drink
But they finally let him go
After six months in the brink
And Rich he went to college
He's workin' night and day
He's been there almost 9 years
But he'll get out someday

Hey, hey where did all my good friends go?
Maybe someplace far away
Hey, hey where did all my good friends go?

And I understand, that people they change
Grow up and move away
But oh how I wish, oh how I wish
That all my good friends could be here today

But Jimmy got a real job
Workin' nine to five
Every once in a while I call him
Make sure he's still alive
And Mikey took some time
And found out he way gay
I didn't have the heart to tell
Him that we all knew anyway

Hey, hey where did all my good friends go?
Maybe someplace far away
Hey, hey where did all my good friends go?
Where did all my good friends go?
