The Saw Doctors - Best of Friends lyrics

We did everything together from an

Early age

Smoked our first fags behind the

School hedge

You captained the minors, I played in goals

You could have played for Ireland

Or so we were told

We will always be

The best of friends

But I won't see

The likes of you again

Drainpipes and combats, sixteen

Hole docs

Played table –soccer beside the

Juke-box

Kathleen was smiling, you the

Call

But I shifted marie at the colgan

Hall

We will always be....

Leeds united lost the FA cup final in 1973 and Alan Clarke was pulled down in the box, de deserved a penalty, we hitched to the letterkenny folk festival in the rain , got a lift back home in the link-box of a massey 188

Now I see you at weddings with

Shiny new shoes

Small talk of houses, the d.i.y. blues

Hasn't been mentioned, I'd like to

Say I wish I had seen you on you

Wedding day

We will always be...
