Lyric When You Got Good Friends

(Allen Collins -- Ronnie VanZant)

You got to love ol Charlie Daniels
You got to cut the rug with Wet Willie too
And you got to be a fan of the Marshall Tucker Band
Before I ll sit down and have a drink with you
Yes, Bakersfield has got ol Merle Haggard
He s a bad, bad boy, yes indeed
Nashville s got a million and one guitar pickers
But I guess my favorite would be the CDB

(Chorus)
Yes there s a few good rockers in New York City
Guess the big LA, it never cared for me
So won t you tell all them Hollywierd writer people
That it just don t make a damn
When you got good friends like meNever dick on good ol Waylon Jennings
Or Willie Nelson, Bob Wills or me
Well they re playin that good ol country-western
You know this thing they call the Texas Swing

(Chorus)
