Good Friends - Hayes Carll

We used to run around skippin' school and drinkin' beer

One drink and the good lord would get us out of here

But now those days are gone, and everything has changed

It’s all been turned around, everybody’s rearranged

Hey, hey, where did all my good friends go

Maybe someplace far away

Hey, hey, where did all my good friends go

Well, Doug, he went to prison for sellin' all his pot

And Rick’s in California bein' somethin' that he’s not

And Rob, he went to law school, we’re all glad he did

But everytime I call I end up talking to his kid

Hey, hey, where did all my good friends go

Maybe someplace far away

Hey, hey, where did all my good friends go

Well, Bo, he joined the navy, to run around and drink

But they finally let him go, after six months in the brink

And Rich, he went to college, he’s workin' night and day

He’s been there almost 9 years, but he’ll get out someday

Hey, hey, where did all my good friends go

Maybe someplace far away

Hey, hey, where did all my good friends go

And I understand, that people they change

Grow up and move away

But oh how I wish, oh how I wish

That all my good friends could be here today

But Jimmy got a real job, workin' nine to five

Every once in a while I call him, make sure he’s still alive

And Mikey took some time, and found out he way gay

I didn’t have the heart to tell him that we all knew anyway

Hey, hey, where did all my good friends go

Maybe someplace far away

Hey, hey, where did all my good friends go

Where did all my good friends go
