I'd meet you at Applebee's after 10pm
We'd talk about what it means to be real men and than
An awful lot of women sure did us wrong
It's time to order another round again
We laughed so much I think we even cried
Describing all the horrible ways that we'd die
But the grave couldn't keep us down for long
Cause if clouds are forming there's lightning to ride
Take a whole lot of country
Take a whole lot of rock & roll
Throw the mix into the fire
Give rise to the legend of Joel
We lived like kings down in Mexico
And spent time in Folsom prison just to take a photo
We always stretched the miles to the pulse of a gallop
Of classic heavy metal on the radio
We shook hands hugging's only for lovers
We got the kind of bond that goes on forever
Your cousins are my cousins too
Closer than a friend to me we could've been brothers
Take a whole lot of country
Take a whole lot of rock & roll
Throw the mix into the fire
Give rise to the legend of Joel
From his legendary band rooms
To his bonfires out of control
He's space epic doom
He's boots and skulls
The bell tolls
Take a whole lot of country
Take a whole lot of rock & roll
Throw the mix into the fire
Give rise to the legend of Joel
