Big Rock In Little Rock

(album: Buddies - 2011)

It was a Thursday night in fall, in a bar in Arkansas
We were a long long way from home, somewhere I'd not been before
We'd been out on the road for a while, with Chuck, John and Jim
We were hoping for the best, man, we only had 20 people in

We made big rock in Little Rock
We did the best that we could
Oh in Little Rock, we made big rock
And we did pretty good

Well John said that nights like tonight would show the true worth of a man
If you're doing things for the right reasons, you still do the best that you can
And playing a little show for 20 people who really care
Is better than playing for a thousand who aren't sure why they're there

We made big rock in Little Rock
We did the best that we could
Oh in Little Rock, we made big rock
And we did pretty good

They were wrapping up the cables, they were loading up the car
Bar stools were on the tables, shift drinking from a jar
Dave said we needed a bridge, we built a major fucking bridge
And we got pretty far

We made big rock in Little Rock
We did the best that we could
Oh in Little Rock, we made big rock
We're that fucking good
