Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We crossed that border every Friday night
We sat beneath that old Dos Equis neon lights
That stucco wall of stories will never tell
Jimmy spent three days in that ol' Mexican jail
[Verse 2]
The boys of summer disappeared that fall
As the years flew by, we grew up after all
Real life is runnin' and gunnin' to no end
It's time we take it on back, way back to way back when
[Verse 3]
Can I get an amen, amigo?
Hey, why don't we go
Check out the world somewhere south of the Rio?
Bring our girls, have a ball, up all night, no last call
Let's sleep in, until ten, wake up and do it all again
Good friends are good for the soul
Can I get an amen, amigo?
Amen, amigo
[Verse 4]
I miss old Mark Crosby's Restaurant and Bar
I miss the queso, the guaco, those gut string guitars
It's time we load that hitch, it's time we ditch this town
Set sail before the sun goes down
[Verse 5]
Can I get an amen, amigo?
Hey, why don't we go
Check out the world somewhere south of the Rio?
Bring our girls, have a ball, up all night, no last call
Let's sleep in, until ten, wake up and do it all again
Good friends are good for the soul
Can I get an amen amigo?
Amen amigo
[Verse 6]
Nowhere to float this boat in a sea of concrete
I miss those cheap sun shades, I miss those flip-flop feet
I wanna go back there, I wanna cast that reel
Wanna hear my brown-eyed girl sing Margaritaville
[Verse 7]
Can I get an amen amigo?
Hey, why don't we go
Check out the world somewhere south of the Rio?
Bring our girls, have a ball, up all night, no last call
Let's sleep in, until ten, wake up and do it all again
Good friends are good for the soul
[Verse 8]
Can I ge an amen amigo?
Hey, why don't we go
Check out the world somewhere south of the Rio?
Bring our girls, have a ball, up all night, no last call
Let's sleep in, until ten, wake up and do it all again
Good friends are good for the soul
I'm saying, good friends are good for the soul
Let me tell you, good friends are good for the soul
[Verse 9]
Can I get an amen amigo?
Amen amigo
Can I get an amen amigo?
Amen amigo
