Couple of frat guys from Abilene

E

Drove out all night to see Robert Earl Keen

F#m

At the KPIG Swine and Soiree dance

They wore baseball caps and khaki pants

A E

They wanted cigs so to save some money

A D

They got one off a hippie that smelled kinda funny

A E

The next thing they knew they was both really hungry and

F# B7

Pretty thirsty too

Chorus 1

They found a store with a sign said their beer was coldest

Sent in Brad ‘cuz he looked the oldest

He got a case of beer and a candybar

Walked over to where them registers are

Laid his fake I.D. on the countertop

The clerk looked and turned, and looked back and stopped

He said, “Boy, I ain’t callin' the cops

but I am keepin' this card.”

The guys took it hard

Chorus 2:

B double E double R–U–N, beer run

B double E double R–U–N, beer run

How happy we would be

If we'd have only brought a better fake ID

B double E double R–U–N beer run

We met another old hippie named Sleepy John

Claimed to be the one from the Robert Earl song

So they gave ‘em their cash, he bought ‘em some brews

It was a beautiful day in Santa Cruz

Feelin' so good, shoulda been a crime

Crowd was cool and the band was primed

They made it back up to their seats just in time to

Sing with all their friends

"The road goes on forever and the party never ends"
