  • Right now I really need a beer with my friends
    Pop a top or two and talk about way back when
    It's been too long no matter how long it's been
    Right now I really need a beer with my friends

    Don't get me wrong I try to keep my heart right
    I talk to Jesus just about every night
    I call my mama and my daddy least once a week
    To remember my roots and keep 'em planted deep
    Sometimes I need to step away and get a different view
    There's really something to that honky tonky attitude
    It pulls me out of that everyday sinking sand
    But I feel better with a cold one in my hand

    Right now I really need a beer with my friends
    Pop a top or two and talk about way back when
    With some folks that seen me through thick and thin
    Start seeing life through a rose-colored neon lens
    We're gonna get that old jukebox working hard
    Before it's over I'll know everybody in this bar
    It's been too long no matter how long it's been
    Right now I really need a beer with my friends

    I got my brothers and my sisters all here with me
    In the glow of that ninety high-def TV
    After I work my poor fingers down to the bone
    Last thing I wanna do is go home and drink alone

    Right now I really need a beer with my friends
    Pop a top or two and talk about way back when
    With some folks that seen me through thick and thin
    Start seeing life through a rose-colored neon lens
    We're gonna get that old jukebox working hard
    Before it's over I'll know everybody in this bar
    It's been too long no matter how long it's been
    Right now I really need a beer with my friends
    Who knows where this little good time is gonna end
    Might shoot tequila or have us some juice and gin
    Tomorrow night we're gonna do it all over again
    Right now I really need a beer with my friends Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
