Hey old friend, it's been such a long time 
Since I saw your smilin' face pressed against my window pane 
Though it's the middle of the night 
And we were racin' the light of the mornin' 
All those new thoughts dawnin' 
About the wrong and the right 
We spent our money so fine 
The girls were standing in line 
Every other night 
Was always the same 
Paradise without any shame 
  
We'd stay up all night 
Tryin' to find just the right rhymes 
And we were fightin' the good fight 
Hangin' on to the good times 
  
Jaunita she's a little bit older now 
Spotcheck Billy looks just the same 
Three card monte on the boulevard 
With mirrors on his shoes 
  
And I just have to laugh 
When I recall the time down in New Orleans 
Don't ya know 
Rained us out of an indoor show 
We spent our money so fine 
The girls were standin' in line 
Down in the quarters at lucky Pierre's 
A time of our life without any cares 
  
We'd stay up all night 
Tryin' to find just the right rhymes 
And we were fightin' the good fight 
Hangin' on to the good times 
  
Yes old friend we had some times 
And later on the moon declined 
To shine its light so benevolently 
It's grace withheld from our company 
and though we went our own ways 
We couldn't escape from where we came 
So we find ourselves back at the table again 
Tellin' stories of survivors and friends 
  
We'd stay up all night 
Tryin' to find just the right rhymes 
And we were fightin' the good fight 
Hangin' on to the good times 
Up all night 
Tryin' to find just the right rhymes 
And we were fightin' the good fight 
Hangin' on to the good times 
Up all night 
Tryin' to find just the right rhymes 
And we were fightin' the good fight 
Hangin' on to the good times
