lyrics

The money’s spent - all my tapes are gone
The lake is dry - and the day is done

Stevie Z threw me in the hedge
I got a mouth full of college prep

Friday night – everywhere to go
Billy Squier on the radio

Down 209 to see my girl
Get in a tangle out behind a church

CHORUS
Me and Dave
Was so great
Cousin Dave in the 80s


Alky gets us to the package store
Side pipes on his Matador

And Big Jim is hidin’ in the bush
Come on out now - yeah we knew you would

Me and Rondo – Locomotive Breath
Me and Johnny on the Free Press steps

Salvation on the Burma Road
A Candy Girl with a heart of gold

CHORUS

BRIDGE

(short verse)
I’ll make a case to drink a case of beer
Feed the lions – and feed my fear

The day is new, Long Dam is gone
My tapes were right here all along

CHORUS out
