Me and the boys that I knew in school

are thirty years old and stubborn

as a herd of mules

We get all cleaned up

on a Saturday night

We say yes to the girls when they ask

if they look alright

Load up the cars and ride around

Roll down the windows and we go to town

And we talk too slow, drive too fast

We're high on life and we're low on gas

Tryin' to make the way things are

the way things used to be

The boys and me

The phone rings

it's the call of the wild

And the clothes we wear

have finally come back in style

We got some...tall tales that we

love to tell

They may not be true

but we sure do remember them well

We work hard to have a little fun

Roll up our sleeves

and get the job done son

And we talk too slow, drive too fast

We're high on life and we're low on gas

Tryin' to make the way things are

the way things used to be

The boys and me

And we talk too slow, drive too fast

We're high on life and we're low on gas

Tryin' to make the way things are

the way things used to be

The boys and me

The boys and me

The boys
