Nights I Can't Remember, Friends I'll Never Forget - Toby Keith

Me and JB and Sonny, we grew up on the buddy plan

Weren't we some bad mothers, closer than brothers

Had a rockin' little three-piece band

Yeah we wrote a lot of songs about women

Then we tried to sing 'em pretty for the girls

Pushin' everythin' we did to the limit

Livin' right out on the edge of the world.

I recall on summer night at a party

We were sophomores hangin' out by the lake

I got off on some wine with a waitress

Sonny had a girlfriend that just couldn't wait

JB hooked up around midnight

With an ugly girl from up in the city

He downed every can of beer in the cooler

Just tryin' to drink that poor thing pretty.

Hey me and the boys we made a lot of noise

And we, sang all our songs for free

We partied through college, acquired some knowledge

Never did get a degree

We did it our way lookin' back on the good days

There's still not a lot I regret

Nights I Can't Remember, Friends I'll Never Forget.

I grew up and got married, took a job with the FPL

Sonny's got a good life, a baby and a good wife

And everyday he carries the mail

JB is a cross-country trucker

And he called last night from South Carolina

He said I fallen in love with a waitress

That I met at a Waffle House diner.

He said the years seem to roll on faster

Than they did back when we were kids

Then we need us a break from the grindstone

That's exactly what we did.

We put in a phone call to Sonny

Then we stayed out all night long

We drank a few cold ones, then told a few old ones

And sang another verse to the song.

Yeah we were boys who made a lot of noise

And we, sang all our songs for free

We
