Friends O' Mine
Journey Through Friendship: Bowling for Soup's Ode to Lifelong Bonds
Lyrics
Well it was ugly but we made it this far
Reflecting on challenges but acknowledging progress.
Some have gone but I forget who they are
Some friends have drifted away, but their identities are forgotten.
Now the hangovers are worse but we get through them fine
Hangovers are tougher, but the friendship withstands.
Sleeping late but we're not lazy
Embracing a leisurely lifestyle without being lazy.
Getting older but we're still crazy
Despite aging, the group maintains a youthful, adventurous spirit.
I'm so glad that I have these friends o mine
Expressing gratitude for the enduring friendships.
It started out at a coffee shop in a most unlikely town
Recalling the origins at an unlikely coffee shop.
And there were casualties but we made it out anyhow
Overcoming challenges and casualties together.
We stuck together through the good and bad times
Sticking together through both good and bad times.
Pulp Fiction, Blazing Saddles, and Fast Times
Referencing shared experiences like movies.
I'm so glad that I have these friends o mine
Reiterating joy in having these enduring friends.
And jobs, girls and obstacles did all but break us down
Facing and overcoming job, relationship, and life challenges.
Night clubs and broken vans in every major town
Experiencing nightlife and challenges during travels.
And I've got your back, you've got mine
Expressing mutual support and loyalty.
Like Johnny Cash said â??I walk the lineâ??
Referencing Johnny Cash's "I walk the line" as a symbol of commitment.
And you can always count on me for one last beer
Assuring reliability for a final shared beer.
We saw the world and the world seemed smaller
Having a broadened perspective after exploring the world.
We're getting wider but not getting no taller
Acknowledging physical changes without losing spirit.
I know we've grown up just a little at a time
Gradual growth and maturity over time.
We're sleeping late but were not lazy
Balancing a laid-back lifestyle without laziness.
We're getting older but were still crazy
Embracing aging while maintaining a vibrant and crazy life.
I'm so glad that I have these friends o mine
Reiterating gratitude for the enduring friendships.
So glad that I have these friends o mine
Expressing continued joy in having these friends.
So glad that I have these friends o mine
Repeating gratitude for the lasting friendships.
