Well c'mon, man, I hear that Bobby's back from being upstate He learned his lesson, so they say, well I guess we'll wait and see He's got a new corvette, he says it does a hundred and twenty, easy Got some catchin' up to do, some crazy score to settle When I first heard Bobby's back, the first thing that I thought of Was how his chic like up and left with some guy she just met I don't think that he knew it yet, man it sent a chill right through me The only thing he ever loved just left with his last paycheck Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All his life, he was the last in line Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All my life, he was a friend of mine Bobby's face looked pale and thin, as if some ghost had haunted him When he asked me what was new, I wasn't quite sure what to say How come everybody's stickin' bloody fingers in my face? I almost cried and said, "They sure don't make cars like they use to" Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All his life, he was the losing kind Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All his life, he never had peace of mind I shook him hard and said, "Listen, man, you can't go back in time again" And never 'til the day that I die did I see tears fall from Bobby's eyes Four or five years had gone by when I read about how Bobby died He crashed his car into a wall, messed up on drugs and alcohol Another brother led astray, well I'lll be damned if I go that way Say a little prayer for him he lived a life you just can't win Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All his life, he was the last in line Bobby's back, maybe for good this time Bobby's gone, he was a friend of mine
