We Were Like A Pair Of Shoes, You Never Saw One Of Us - Without The Other, We Were Brothers But We Weren't Kin - Those Neighborhood Football Games Was The Only Time - You Might Ever See Us On Different Teams Back Then - Ah We'd Cuss One Another For All That The Other Was Worth - But In Our Hearts We Were Only Cussin Each Other's Shirt
I Wore Blue And He Wore Brown - But We Both Knew The Colors Didn't Count - At The End Of The Day We'd Walk Away - There Was No Doubt That We Were Friends For Life - I Wore Blue And He Wore Brown
We Lost Touch, I Got A Job Working For The State - He Did A Crime, Got Some Time, Oh I'd Never Thought - That Waitin' For The Transfer Bus To Arrive At The Gate Number One - When It Pulled Up He'd Stepp Off In The Cuffs, Oh How I Fought - Back The Tears As I Led Him Down To Cell Block Three - He Said I Know You're Just Doing Your Job, As I Turned The Key - And Just Like Those Neighborhood Football Games That We Played In - There We Stood On Different Sides Again
I Wore Blue And He Wore Brown - But We Both Knew The Colors Didn't Count - At The End Of The Day We'd Walk Away - There Was No Doubt That We Were Friends For Life - I Wore Blue And He Wore Brown
True Friends Are Few And Far Between - But Nothing Comes Between True Friends
I Wore Blue And He Wore Brown - But We Both Knew The Colors Didn't Count - At The End Of The Day We'd Walk Away - There Was No Doubt That We Were Friends For Life - I Wore Blue And He Wore Brown
