MIKE CAMPBELL & THE DIRTY KNOBS
"My Old Friends"

Well, say goodbye to my old friends
They're quite the motley crew
Jim Beam, Jack Daniels, Johnny Walker
Yeah, just to name a few
They reside at the edge of town
At the mini market liquor store
They know what's on your mind
And they got everything you're lookin' for

This Don Julio from Mexico
Harvey Wallbanger and Dirty Shirley
They may have good intention, but they got it in for me
Captain Morgan and Bushmills always laughin' it up
They don't mind takin' advantage of a man down on his luck

[Chorus:]
Oh, say goodbye to my old friends
I got to draw the line
You'll always have a place, though
Somewhere in the back of my mind

Dom Perignon and Margarita-, ain't they a cozy couple?
My mind's a little fuzzy right now, and I think I might be seein' double
Yeah, there's Budweiser and Anheuser-Busch
Bloody Mary and Brandy Alexander
In a bottle or in a can, yeah, they'll really put a hurtin' on ya

[Chorus:]
Oh, say goodbye to my old friends
I got to draw the line
You'll always have a place, though
Somewhere in the back of my mind

[Bridge:]
A saga, a misspent youth was nearly the death of me
Yeah, gettin' kinda long in the tooth
Time to set my spirit free

Ridin' the back of a Greyhound bus with the losers, freaks and geeks
Feel like a burned out fuse, up the paddle without a creek
Yeah, Stella Artois and St. Pauli Girl
Put it on my tab
I'll be here until closin' time, then you can call me a cab

[Chorus:]
Say goodbye to my old friends
I got to draw the line
You'll always have a place, though
Somewhere in the back of my mind
Oh, say goodbye to my old friends
I got to draw the line
You'll always have a place, though
Somewhere in the back of my mind
Somewhere in the back of my mind
Say goodbye to my old friends
