Todd Snider - Just Like Old Times lyrics

There's a Coke machine glowin' through the parking lot Call it a room with a view This was the best night of pool that I ever shot I made a lot of money too I was looking for some company In the weekly Scene Seen an ad it just had to be you I hadn't seen you since New Orleans And I never did figure out where you ran off to I know I looked bad the last time you saw me But lately I been doin' all right I won a tournament last week in Oklahoma City Hustled half of this town tonight I got some cocaine if you want some It's the best that I could find [alternate lyric: I've also got a bottle of wine] Hey we could just sit here and talk all night If that big ol' guy out in the car don't mind Like old times Screw off the top on a bottle of wine [alternate lyric: Just like the old times] Living out our own kind of American dream Old times Your goal was always the same as mine You didn't want to throw a fishing line in that old main stream You know I ain't expecting anybody but you I don't know who this could be at the door But I'm pretty sure that you got a clue And I bet that you've been to this hotel before Put the "you-know-what" - In the bathroom but Don't flush it down just yet Put your pager in my suitcase I'll get the window You light a cigarette It'll be like... Old times Just like the old times Living out our own kind of American dream Old times Your goal was always the same as mine You didn't want to throw a fishing line in that old main stream No sir officer you don't understand We're just two old friends drinkin' wine I'm sure she is but that's not all she is She's also an old friend of mine I got her high school picture right here in my wallet - 1982 No sir officer no offense taken You have a good night, too Good thing we didn't throw this away, baby Turn up that radio I'm pretty sure that cop knew what we were up to I guess he just decided to let us go Don't make such a thing about that picture That was just something I kept Don't get all sentimental on me now, girl You haven't even told me what your new name is yet Old times Just like the old times Living out our own kind of American dream Old times Your goal was always the same as mine You didn't want to throw a fishing line in that old main stream
