Little story about two old friends talking about the old times rather than working on one particular day. Story line by Rob Powell - Lyrics by Rob Powell & TomV. Just a fun song on a Thanksgiving weekend. Rob's channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/MrRobbp
TWO OLD FRIENDS by RobPowell & TomV Nov-2011
WELL, THAT JOHN DEERE WAS GIVING ME TROUBLE, THE OTHER DAY
TRIED TO GET HIM GOING, HAD TO ROLL THE HAY
MY GOOD BUDDY BILL SAID HE KNEW WHAT TO DO,
PULLED OUT A BOTTLE .....LET'S HAVE US A DRINK OR TWO
WE GOT TO TALKING 'BOUT OLD TIMES, AND
MAKING HAY WHEN THE SUN SHINES,
LOOKING BACK THROUGH A BOTTLE OF JACK
TWO OLD FRIENDS PLAYING YACKETY-YACK
WE USED TO FISHOUT THE POND ON MR. JOHNSON'S FARM
TWO YOUNG BOYS NEVER MEANING NO HARM,
CHASED US DOWN THE ROAD HOLLERING DON'T YOU BOYS COME BACK
AIN'T IT FUNNY HOW YOU REMEMBER THINGS LIKE THAT
WE GOT TO TALKING 'BOUT OLD TIMES, AND
MAKING HAY WHEN THE SUN SHINES,
LOOKING BACK THROUGH A BOTTLE OF JACK
TWO OLD FRIENDS PLAYING YACKETY-YACK,.......HE SAID
TIMES HAVE CHANGED, WE WERE YOUNGER AND BOLDER
LOOK BACK AND LAUGH, ....NOW WE'RE GETTING OLDER
SHOOK HIS HEAD........SAID HE WAS HEADED HOME
WE GOT TO TALKING 'BOUT OLD TIMES, AND
MAKING HAY WHEN THE SUN SHINES,
LOOKING BACK THROUGH A BOTTLE OF JACK
TWO OLD FRIENDS PLAYING YACKETY-YACK, JUST
TWO OLD FRIENDS PLAYING YACKETY-YACK
TWO OLD FRIENDS.
Nothing like talking about old times! Very nice, Tom, very nice!....Jan

@janwalsh1000 Especially if you're uninhibited due to a little 'jaw grease' thanks to Mr. Daniels, eh? Thanks for stopping by.

@PatrickGMoran Hey Patrick......Still a work in progress but I kinda like it myself as lyrics go. On the overall it has possibilities I think.. Sunday is a good day for retakes,.....hahahahah....Robb had a good story line going and sent it to me the other day. Ain't this more fun than most things?

@onewomanandsomesongs Thanks janet. I flubbed the sound, but I'm gonna redo it. That was a run through to see if I was on the same page as Robb. I tend to 'expose' myself maybe too much, but it's only a song, ya know? I figure we're all friends here anyway. What the hell. I'll do another one tomorrow. Maybe a little better. Who knows.
