Friday night at the ball game
|
Sitting down in the cold rain
|
Cheering for the wrong team
|
'Cause we drank too much
|
|
Mary Ann was something
|
We were all just nothings
|
But we made it with her
|
And the last, we made up
|
|
We were on our way
|
How could those crazy days be so long ago?
|
We were flyin' high, best friends for life
|
Don't know where it all goes
|
But you wake one day and the only thing left
|
You can say is so long
|
|
Made it through the '90s
|
Careless youth behind me
|
Fresh out of college
|
And bound to conquer the world
|
|
Charlie went to Detroit
|
Bobby had some exploits
|
And me, I got married
|
To a sweet brown-eyed girl
|
And she held my heart
|
Somehow, it fell apart
|
|
So long ago, we were flyin' high, best friends for life
|
Don't know where it all goes
|
But you wake one day and the only thing left
|
You can say is so long
|
Time sure can slip through your hands
|
Time doesn't care about your man
|
|
Sunday morning, cold rain
|
Wipin' of the tear stains
|
Saying goodbye to Charlie
|
Man, you left us to soon
|
|
Later on at Harrys
|
Gathered 'round the chair legs
|
Memories untouched
|
To the life that we knew
|
|
We were on our way
|
How can just yesterday be so long ago?
|
We were flyin' high, best friends for life
|
Don't know where it all goes
|
But you wake one day and the only thing left
|
You can say, we'll just say, so long, so long
|
