David & Me

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Come on in, sit yourself down Kick your shoes off, my friend Put your feet up, there's wine in the cup It's good to see you again I haven't seen your smile for quite a while So just unwind, relax your mind Let the time go by [Verse 2] Well, let me see now I ain't seen you since a while down in Coconut Grove Except for the time we picked label 9 But that was really no joke 'Cause I got too drunk, and hell I always played that way So ain't nothing changed, I'm still the same So let the time go by [Verse 3] How is your lady, she still just as crazy? What the hell was her name? Remember the night we both got so tight And never did catch her plane We played guitar all night in that terminal We had a ball, played 'em all Let the time go by [Verse 4] You still live upstairs? Your cats are all there with a dozen guitars They say we all changed But I feel the same and I know that you are They always said we played 'em much too long But what's a song? It carries on And makes the time go by [Verse 5] Now I live in the West Texas, I guess Old Austin's the best I'm building a house ten miles to the south The old bird's gonna nest The radio will play our songs sometimes It makes me smile, erase some miles Makes the time go by [Outro] Yes, it's a long old road we ride down, my friend Yes, it's a long old road we ride But I know we'll make it through, we'll make it to the end Yes, friend, we'll make it, you and I
