Closing In On The Fire

I guess Phoenix hard times and hard work helped shape the mold
 We pushed an old Chrystler a hell of a lot further than we rode
 I remember when our biggest dream
 Was breakin' the bank on some pinball machine
 Well ol' Jim hit the jackpot in Idaho Falls, Idaho
 After all of this time, he's still a best friend of mine, one of a kind


In Missoula Montana out under that unending sky
 There in a valley it would make any southern boy smile
 With the stars and the bars and a breeze 
Hank and his lady are takin' it easy
 Deep in the west you might say colonial style
 After all of this time, he's still a best friend of mine, one of a kind


He was a legend, I was a redneck and green
 The first to believe, he took me under his wing
 Now the edges are still pretty rough
 But when I'm loggin' that guitar and struttin' my stuff
 Old Buddy, old friend, you were the start of the dream
 And after all of this time, he's still a best friend of mine, one of a kind


 All laughin' and jokin' aside
 I can honestly say and say it with pride
 Somewhere, sometime in this life of mine
 I must have done somethin' all right
 Somewhere, sometime in this life of mine
 I must have done somethin' all right
