My best friend and brother from another mother who shared a bedroom with my brother Ronnie and I for a solid decade. In the 89s and 90s.
I know they're both up there calling dibs on the good beds and I'll be at the closet with the rat bat rest while you can Bro,
When I get there I'll get them back roads for better than when we did in Marshall county, beautifully ,without a care in the world.
