| My Best Friend We’d talk nearly every day Even when we had nothing to say When we couldn’t say something new We’d say an old thing and it still held true That was my best friend We saw each other’s highs and lows We even wore each other’s clothes One time I talked him out of killing himself Once we stole a six-pack right off of the shelf That was my best friend And as high school came to an end We were the coolest we had ever been We said we’d never want to not be friends But I haven’t seen that much since then Of my best friend I’m older and I don’t need all that I’ve got a girlfriend, I’ve got a cat I’ve got some guys I play softball with Wouldn’t have much time for someone even if They were my best friend Dylan - electric and acoustic pianos, clavinet, mellotron James Everest - guitar Jim Anton - bass Jason Heinrichs - drum programming Some of the Summertime All the handsome girls and pretty boys Are heading out for the spring Taking off those extra layers And really shakin’ that thing When I see ‘em getting their groove on It makes me want to get a move on And spend some of the summertime with you It’s much too nice, too nice a day For staying inside We could take our bicycles down Down to the waterslide And then we’d change out of our suits And take a ride in a parachute I wanna spend some of the summertime with you The sun won’t last, or so I’m told So I hope I die before it gets cold Last night we said some things I know we didn’t mean And I’ll bet you the upstairs neighbors Heard the whole damn thing But our love it can survive If it’s 9 below or 95 I wanna spend some of the summertime with you Dylan - electric piano, organ, guitar John Devine - tenor saxophones John Guion - bass Mark Herr - drums Dang, you're determined to go to "Emma's Moving To Chicago" and the final notes Go back to "Playing With The Boys in Willie's Band" and "The Secret of Life" Home |
