All My Rowdy Friends (Have Settled Down)

All my rowdy friends have settled down

And it seems to be more in the laid-back songs

Nobody wants to get drunk and get loud

Everybody just wants to go back home

I myself have seen my wilder days

And I have seen my name at the top of the page

But I need to find a friend just to run around

But nobody wants to get high on the town

And all my rowdy friends have settled down

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 he's finally getting straight

And Waylon's staying home and loving Jessi more these days

And nobody wants to get drunk and get loud

And all my rowdy friends have settled down

And the hangovers hurt more than they used to

And corn bread and ice tea took the place of pills and 90-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

Yeah, I think I know what my father meant

When he sang about the "Lost Highway"

And Johnny Cash don't act like he did back in '68

And Kris, he is a movie star, and he's moved off 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
