INTRO : Verse 1 All my rowdy friends have settled down And they seem to be more into laid back songs And nobody wants to get drunk and get loud Everybody just wants to go back home Verse 2 I myself have seen my wilder days And I have seen my name at the top of the page But I need to find me a friend just to run around But nobody wants to get high on the town And all my rowdy friends have settled down Chorus And I think I know what my father meant When he sang about a lost highway And old George Jones I'm glad to see is finally getting straight And Waylon's staying at home and loving Jesse more these days And nobody wants to get drunk and get loud And all my rowdy friends have settled down Instru: Verse 3 And the hangovers hurt more than they used to And cornbread and iced tea took the place of pills and ninety proof And it seems like none of us do things quite like we used to do And nobody wants to get high on the town And all my rowdy friends have settled down Chorus And I think I know what my father meant When he sang about a lost highway And Johnny Cash don't act like he did back in sixty eight And Kris he is a movie star and he moved out to L.A. And nobody wants to get drunk and get loud And all my rowdy friends have settled down Yeah me and my rowdy friends done rowdied on down
