DO!! YOU!! PARTY!!! - part 6

When Old Friends Come To Town
(c) Errol Spitzer/Jackie Wayne White, Bob White Music, Inc., ASCAP 
Chorus
When old friends come to town
Lock your woman up
And the liquor cab’nit down
When Old Friends Come to Town

The way they were back then
Is the way they are right now 
We’re seventeen again
When old friends come to town
Vs 1
Larry, Dick, and Bun
We’ve been friends for years

Played high school baseball 
downed a thousand  Miller beers

They’re all quite successful 
In their chosen fields

But when we get together 
That’s another deal

Chorus
When old friends come to town
Lock your woman up
And the liquor cab’nit down
When Old Friends Come to Town

The way they were back then
Is the way they are right now 
We’re seventeen again
When old friends come to town

Vs 2
We hit the all night bars
Chase the waitresses
Tell each other lies 
‘Bout the girls we loved and left

We go back to my house
eat all the groceries 
Any place they fall
Is where they’re gonna sleep

Chorus
When old friends come to town
Lock your woman up
And the liquor cab’nit down
When Old Friends Come to Town

The way they were back then
Is the way they are right now 
We’re seventeen again
When old friends come to town

Bridge
With friends like these
Who needs enemies

Instrumental 

Chorus 

When old friends come to town
Lock your woman up
And the liquor cab’nit down
When Old Friends Come to Town

The way they were back then
Is the way they are right now 

We go back in time 
When old friends come to town

When Old Friends Come To Town by Errol Spitzer

Verse 1

Out in West Texas where the oil rigs shine,
Billy Bob’s wranglin’ fortunes, tryin’ to make ‘em mine.
Deals in the dirt, secrets in the sand,
It’s a wild ol’ world when you’re a Landman.

Chorus

🎶 Pump it up, drill it down,
Cowboy boots in a boomtown.
Money’s flowin’, tempers too,
Singin’ them ol’ Landman Blues.
Yeehaw, strike it rich or bust,
In Sheridan’s world, it’s oil or dust! 🎶

Verse 2

Tommy Norris got a plan, but it’s half a mess,
Cami’s countin’ dollars while he’s countin’ stress.
Deals with drug lords, lawyers, and kin,
Lord knows the trouble that oil brings in.

Chorus (repeat)

🎶 Pump it up, drill it down,
Cowboy boots in a boomtown.
Money’s flowin’, tempers too,
Singin’ them ol’ Landman Blues.
Yeehaw, strike it rich or bust,
In Sheridan’s world, it’s oil or dust! 🎶

Bridge (funny twist)

Well the rigs keep spinnin’, the whiskey keeps pourin’,
Contracts signed while the roosters are snorin’.
If you’re lookin’ for love, or just a quick buck,
Better bring a lawyer and a whole lotta luck!

Final Chorus (amped up)

🎶 Pump it up, drill it down,
Cowboy boots in a boomtown.
Secrets rise like oil from the ground,
Landman’s the wildest show around!
Yeehaw, strike it rich or bust,
In Sheridan’s world, it’s oil or dust! 🎶
