Got out of school and I thought I'd join
There wasn't really nothing going on
Then trouble came when we were under attack
She said she'd wait for me 'til I got back
I just shipped out and then lickety-split
Jody's watching TV on my TV set
He's playing my guitar and drinking my beer
He's over there while i'm stuck over here
Oh my friend Jody
You're a lucky boy to be on top
But she's way to smart and when the problems start
Its like they're never gonna stop
Oh my friend Jody
Enjoy it all while you still can
'Cause at the end of the game she's got my name
And I'm a gonna be her man
Now I don't blame a girl for getting 'round
(If not we never would have gotten down)
A dirty angel with a back seat smile
The kind of lover that cant help go wild
And I aint saying I'm the perfect guy
And you know Jody, he's a friend of mine
But you never see it coming when its 'blue on blue'
At the Delta Hotel who knows what they do?
So here's to Jody he's a hell of a friend
He's eating sugar while I'm eating sand
I'm sweatin' bullets and dodging my grave
And Jody 's living in the home of the brave
My baby was there when I left (you're right)
Jody was there when I left (you're right)
I should have been there but I left' (you're right)
And now I ain't got nothing left (you're right)
