Album:

I've Always Been Crazy

Billy we've come along way together and through it all
 You've been just like a brother to me
 And Billy we've had our share of ups and downs
 Froze our tails sleeping on the ground
 When the jobs were few and far between.


 We've been knocking around together so long
 Singing them same old songs
 Been out in the rain so long I swear we're shrinking
 Billy lately I have done some thinking.


 When I look back on our lives
 We've sure had ourself a time
 But you know it's been a wild world we traveled
 And it's startin' to unravel.


 We leave so many loose ends behind
 We've been bucked off and kicked so many times
 And the ground just keeps gettin' harder
 Billy you know well as I we ain't gettin' no younger.


 Billy another summer's come and gone
 Now with winter coming on
 I know we planned on heading south
 But Billy I thought about it several days
 And these words I'm about to say.


 They don't taste good in my mouth
 But there's someone who's waiting back home
 Lord, if she'll still have me
 Guess I'll be saying so long you go on without me.


 Ain't no easy way of saying goodbye
 So be sure and tell 'em all down in Texas I said hi...
