That guy right there was my best friend
And he knows it
When it comes to love we were tough didn't say it
But we'd show it
In that picture there we were up to no good
We were way too young
To be out on the town with the rough crowd
And stay out til the rising sun
We knew someday that we'd have to change
But since you didn't make it to that day
I think about the home team quarterback
And all those good times that we had
When a back porch and a six-pack is all we'd need
Just long necks and long weekends
My best times are the ones you're in
And right now I can't help but think
Why do the good guys gotta leave
That picture there she's in his hands
His little baby girl
And I hoped one day he'd have the chance
To show her the world
I guess no one knew what was going on
They couldn't feel his pain
Waking up to that phone call he's gone
I feel the same
We knew someday that we'd have to change
But since you didn't make it to that day
I think about the home team quarterback
And all those good times that we had
When a back porch and a six-pack is all we'd need
Just long necks and long weekends
My best times are the ones you're in
And right now I can't help but think
Why do the good guys gotta leave
The good guys gotta leave
If he was here right now I know what he'd say
Make sure they remember me that way
As the home team quarterback
And all those good times that we had
When a back porch and a six-pack is all we'd need
Just long necks and long weekends
My best times are the ones you're in
And right now I can't help but think
Why do the good guys gotta leave
The good guys gotta leave
