Friends

(album: Sunrise In The Land Of Milk And Honey - 2009)

[David Lowery:]
Well I'd never sleep with your ex-girlfriend
Even if she starts to flirt with me again.
Allow me apologize for my slightly wicked thoughts;
'Cause that's the kind of friend that you've got.
[Patterson Hood:]
If a fight breaks out and you're the cause of it
In some redneck bar where you've been talking shit.
I would not forsake you later in that parking lot
'cause that's the kind of friend that you've got.
[Lowery and Hood:]
Well through the laughter and the tears,
We go stumbling through the years.
[Lowery:]
A bit dysfunctional well folks might say
[Hood:]
Well I've got the dirt on you.
[Lowery:]
Hey, I've got plenty on you too.
[Lowery and Hood:]
So I pray we stay together all our days.

[Lowery:]
So when you're on a date
And you finally bring that girl home.
You put a little Captain Beefheart on the stereo
And you disconnect the phone.

[Hood:]
Then I show up drunk and raving,
And then I pass out on the spot.
'Cause that's the kind of friend
That you've got.
[Lowery:]
Well through the laughter and the tears,
[Lowery and Hood:]
We go stumbling through the years.
[Lowery:]
A bit dysfunctional well folks might say
[Hood:]
You can say that again.
[Lowery and Hood:]
Well I've got the dirt on you.
[Lowery:]
Hey, I've got plenty on you too;
[Lowery and Hood:]
So I pray we stay together all our days.
[Lowery:]
Oh dear lord
[Lowery and Hood:]
Yeah I pray we stay together all our days.
