Recorded in the Brewster shed.

lyrics

The ones I call friends are the best thing that I think I’ll ever have.
No matter how far by boat, plane or car I know they’ll always be there for me
They know that I don’t have much money and don’t give a damn about the cost
When the sleeping is hard in the couches and yards they always let me stay for free

I’ll be always rambling on
One minute I’m there
and the next one I’m gone
I’m in these selfish years, boys
Living these selfish years

My family has got the best of intention and hold their tongues when they thing I’m lost
They stay up all night hoping that I’m alright and waiting for me and that call
Where I can hear the welling tears pulled up in buckets from my mama’s voice
She knows that I love her as I comfort her ear but its not for me that she’s scared

She knows that I’ll be always rambling on
One minute I’m there and the next one I’m gone
I’m in these selfish years, boys
Living these selfish years

I promised myself that a woman would never be holding me down
I would bare this cross even when I’m at a loss and my heart is too empty to care
I did not expect it and she came along. Drew me in with her curls and beautiful songs
Of heartache and lust and the road she could trust and I knew why I’d waited this long

I know that I’ll be always rambling on
One minute we’re there and the next one I’m gone.
She’ll pull me out of these selfish years, boys.
Make me leave these selfish years
