Last night an old friend called me up and said put your clothes on son
Come out and meet me I'm watchin' Rollin' in the Hay
We sat talked all night long about him, his son, and his wife
And how the years just seem to slip away
(Chorus)
Last night we were drinkin' beer, talkin' 'bout our younger years
And all the things we thought we did alright
Like pickin' guitars in the moonlight, sittin' by a fire
Smoozin' on the girls we really love
Now we're both married men, seems we're done with our wilder ways
To say we've come this far well I am amazed
But who's to say that we don't deserve the good things in our lives
Just because we had a little fun along the ride
(Chorus)
We'd throw on our overalls and head to the river bank
Fish and drink until the break of dawn
Now he's got a pretty wife and child, hey I gotta pretty wife too
But to say we're done with our care free days oh son you'd be a fool
(Chorus)
Repeat first line of chorus
