Its All Good
Saw an old friend not long ago
That I hadn’t seen since we were bros
We said why it’d take all these years
To catch up over a few beers
We agreed it was family and a little thing called life
We laughed cause I still have a dog and he still has a wife
The time we lost didn't seem real
Guess for good friends time’s not a big deal
But when I asked him
If we’d seen and done all we could
He looked over and said
Man, It’s all good
We talked of old times, from fryin’-pans to fires
Good times now that we’re both much better liars
He noticed I’d grown wider but not much wiser
I replied that I still got my hair and it ain’t even whiter
But when I asked him
If we’d seen and done all we could
He looked over and said
Man, It’s all good
We talked all night, sharin’ our highs and lows
Both admittin’ it’s all right and that’s just how life goes
We’re still young-guns but with old voices
Both still dreamin’ the dream that’s mostly bad choices
But when I asked him
If we’d seen and done all we could
He looked over and said
Man, It’s all good
Man, It’s all good
Oh yeah, mmm…
Man, It’s all good
