  • Well it's been a long time, glad to see your face
    I knew we'd meet again another time, another place
    Can't believe it's been so many years
    We better grab a chair and a couple of beers
    You're lookin' good in your three piece suit
    You know I always knew you'd take the business route
    You were always the one who followed the light and
    You look like you're doing alright

    I've been singing for my rent and singing for my supper
    I'm above the below and below the upper
    I'm stuck in the middle where the money gets tight
    But i guess I'm doing alright

    I'm all, I'm all, I'm alright
    It's a beautiful day, not a cloud in sight
    So I guess I'm doing alright
    Oh, oh I'm alright
    Got a good ole friend here with me tonight
    So I guess I'm doing alright

    Well we raised a lot of hell when we were younger
    They thought we were crazy but we had the hunger
    We kept a lot of friends and skipped a lot of class
    Been on top of the world and knocked on our ass
    Lost touch, we lost in love
    And lost our minds when things got tough
    But beating time is a losing fight
    But I guess I'm doing alright

    I'm all, I'm all, I'm alright
    It's a beautiful day, not a cloud in sight
    So I guess I'm doing alright
    Oh, oh I'm alright
    Got a good ole friend here with me tonight
    So I guess I'm doing alright

    Well I hate to see this evening end
    God only knows when I'll see you again
    Send a fax or send me a letter
    Or give me a call that will even be better
    Give the wife a kiss for me
    And say hello to the family
    Tell them all my future's looking bright and I miss them
    But I'm doing alright

    I'm all, I'm all, I'm alright
    It's a beautiful day, not a cloud in sight
    So I guess I'm doing alright
    Oh, oh I'm alright
    Got a good ole friend here with me tonight
    So I guess I'm doing alright Writer/s: Kim Richey, Larry Gottlieb, Thomas Michael Angelo
