Amen Amigo - Aaron Watson

We crossed that border every Friday night

We sat beneath that ol' Dos Equis neon light

That stucco wall has stories we’ll never tell

Jimmy spent three days in that ol' Mexican jail

The boys of summer disappeared that fall

As the years flew by, we grew up after all

Real life is running and gunning to no end

It’s time we take it on back, way back to way back when

Can I get an amen amigo hey why don’t we go

Check out the world somewhere south of the Rio

Bring the girls, have a ball, up all night, no last call

Then sleep in until ten, wake up and do it all again

Good friends are good for the soul, can I get an amen amigo

I miss ol' Ma Crosby’s Restaurant and Bar

I miss the queso and the guaco and those gut string guitars

It’s time we load that hitch, it’s time we ditch this town

Set sail before the sun goes down

Can I get an amen amigo, hey why don’t we go

Check out the world somewhere south of the Rio

Bring the girls, have a ball, up all night, no last call

Then sleep in until ten, wake up and do it all again

Good friends are good for the soul, can I get an amen amigo

There’s nowhere to float this boat in this sea of concrete

I miss those cheap sunshades, I miss those flip-flop feet

I wanna go back there, I wanna cast that reel

Wanna hear my brown-eyed girl sing Margaritaville

Can I get an amen amigo, hey why don’t we go

Check out the world somewhere south of the Rio

Bring the girls, have a ball, up all night, no last call

Then sleep in until ten, wake up and do it all again

Good friends are good for the soul, can I get an amen amigo

Can I get an amen amigo, hey why don’t we go

Check out the world somewhere south of the Rio

Bring the girls, have a ball, up all night, no last call

Then sleep in until ten, wake up and do it all again

Good friends are good for the soul

I’m saying good friends are good for the soul

Let me tell you good friends are good for the soul

Can I get an amen amigo

Can I get an amen amigo
