Jimmy Wayne - Blue And Brown lyrics

We were like a pair of shoes, you never saw one of us

Without the other, we were brothers but we weren't kin

Those neighborhood football games was the only time

You might ever see us on different teams back then

Ah we'd cuss one another for all that the other was worth

But in our hearts we were only cussing each other's shirt

CHORUS: I wore blue and he wore brown

But we both knew the colors didn't count

At the end of the day we'd walk away

There was no doubt that we were friends for life

I wore blue and he wore brown

We lost touch, I got a job working for the state

He did a crime, got some time, oh I'd never thought

That waitin' for the transfer bus to arrive at gate number one

When it pulled up he'd step off in cuffs, oh how I fought

Back the tears as I led him down to cell block three

He said I know you're just doing your job, as I turned the key

And just like those football games that we played in

There we stood on different sides again

CHORUS

True friends are few and far between

But nothing comes between true friends

CHORUS
