Ole Pal Songtext
von The Steel Woods

Ole buddy, ole pal I need to talk to you right now
You′re the only one who just might understand
Ole buddy right now it seems the ground's too hard to plough
And this ole mule I got is cussin′ me again

Ole buddy, ole pal, I been on this road a while
And I can't see for me what's in it in the end
Well I won′t tell you no lies and you see tears are in my eyes
It′s 'cause I′m running with my face against the wind

When it rains it pours like it never has before
When the sun shines it burns me through my shirt
The wind cuts like razors when I open up the door
I got a brokеn heart, but I can't feel it hurt

Ole buddy, ole pal, nothin′s changеd in this old town
The welcome sign still looks like it's about to fall
I been helping out your Mom and I took Becky to the prom
But don′t you worry man, it ain't like that at all


Coach Davidson got fired but if you ask him he retired
And he wasn't takin′ all those pills they had him on
Wish I could tell you face-to-face
They hired your dad to take his place
And he′s been runnin' us like dogs since you been gone

And when it rains it pours like it never has before
When the sun shines it burns me through my shirt
The wind cuts like razors when I open up the door
I got a broken heart but I can′t feel it hurt

Ole buddy, ole pal, we can't forget about you now
They put your picture up down at the city hall
Next to a flag and a plaque that said you never made it back
And in a few words you′re a hero to us all

When it rains it pours like it never has before
When the sun shines it burns me through my shirt
The wind cuts like razors when I open up the door
I got a broken heart but I can't feel it hurt

Ole buddy, ole pal, I need to talk to you right now
But I′ll just drive by your old place again
Ole buddy, ole pal, if I could call you up somehow
I'd lie and tell you that I'm gettin′ by
Without my best friend
