Nitty Gritty Dirt Band Miscellaneous Partners, Brothers And Friends (1986) The promoter said he wants to cancel cause there ain’t enough tickets sold The air conditioner on the bus is broke and I can’t shake this cold The single lost the bullet the singers losing his wife Well I might be crazy but I won’t change a single thing about this life Sometimes we feel like champions sometimes we just can’t win Sometimes our records hit the top of the charts or the discount bargain bins Through almost twenty years of touring we remain partners, brothers and friends Well we keep it together cause we’re sure we’re gonna be big time before it all ends Just as long as Johnny’s got his fiddle and Jimmy’s got his drums along Then Jeffrey and Me and Bobby will be singing out our favorite song Catching fire from the folks in the front row fan the flames as the beat gets strong It’s great to be a part of something so good it’s lasted so long Well I saw a story in the paper suddenly the band’s big news The critics all like our record just fine but they seem a bit confused Is it folk or rock or country whoa seems like everybody cares but us So just leave us an early wake-up call so we don’t miss the bus Just as long as Johnny’s got his fiddle and Jimmy’s got his drums along Then Jeffrey and Me and Bobby will be singing all our favorite song Catching fire from the folks in the front row fan the flames as the beat gets strong It’s great to be a part of something so good it’s lasted so long The band says it can’t stand my latest song it’s too personal But my first wife’s second marriage blew up they had to get the danged thing annulled Well if that ain’t something to sing about you tell me what is And we’ll give it a beat, put it on the street and we might just have another hit Just as long as Johnny’s got his banjo and Jimmy’s got his harps along Then Jeffrey and Me and Bobby will be singing all our favorite song Catching fire from the folks in the front row fan the flames as the beat gets strong It’s great to be a part of something so good it’s lasted so long Yeah it’s great to be a part of something so good it’s lasted so long |
