Damn Good Mates

(アルバム： The 25th Annivesary Album - 2017)

You're driving back home down Route 56
You almost hit a roo and you end up in a ditch
You can't pull forward and you can't back out
You're sitting there thinking whatcha gonna do now
You'd be a little nervous if a cop showed up
'Cause you drank a little maybe just a little too much
Waiting on a tow truck takes too long
It's two in the morning, who you gonna call

Mates damn good mates
Half an hour later they're pulling you out
You know the ones I'm talking about
Mates, damn good mates
You can count 'em all on one of your hands
Got a hundred friends
A couple of damn good mates

So you're all shooting pool on a Saturday night
This little brunette keeps giving you the eye
So you buy her a drink, and before too long
You're out on the floor in the middle of a song
Well, about that time her ex shows up
Staring you down, getting all bowed up
He's a big ol' jacked up S.O.B
That's alright he's about to meet your
Mates damn good mates
A few seconds later he's starting to see
It ain't one on one it's one on three

Mates damn good mates
They do it for you 'cause you'd do it for them
You got a hundred friends
And a couple of damn good mates

They're there even when you don't see 'em as much
'Cause you moved away or you fell in love
But they're wearing a tux when you're saying your vows
And if you crash and burn you can crash on their couch

Mates damn good mates
They love you like a brother there ain't no doubt
You know the ones I'm talking about
Mates damn good mates
You can count 'em all on one of your hands
Got a hundred friends
And a couple of damn good mates
Oh, damn good mates
