The road's been long we've both been gone
Life's kept us movin' miles draggin' on
But when we cross paths it's clear as day
Some things don't rust they're built to stay
It's like we never skipped a beat
Same old jokes same worn-out seats
A handshake turns to a brother's hug
Talkin' 'bout life and kickin' up dust
Doesn't matter the time doesn't matter the miles
True bonds don't fade they just go quiet a while
You've got your scars I've got mine too
Stories of battles we both lived through
But when the whiskey pours and the night rolls on
It's like no time's passed; we're still that strong
It's like we never skipped a beat
Throwin' back laughs feelin' the heat
From the good ol' days to now and then
We're more than friends we're blood to the end
Doesn't matter the time doesn't matter the miles
True bonds don't fade they just go quiet a while
You're the guy I'd call if the world came down
If the truck broke down on the edge of town
Through hell or high water you're in my lane
Brothers in heart brothers in name
It's like we never skipped a beat
Throwin' back laughs feelin' the heat
From the good ol' days to now and then
We're more than friends we're blood to the end
Doesn't matter the time doesn't matter the miles
True bonds don't fade they just go quiet a while
So here's to the men who hold their ground
Through silence and storms they're still around
True friendship's rare but damn it's sweet
With you it's like we never skipped a beat
