The Ivie Brothers - We're the Band

Parkway South off 106 headed for AC
The van broke down in some one bar town, I think we need a drink
Some local boys made an obscene noise and laughed as we walked in
Their cue sticks are drawn and the bouncers are gone

We're the Band, We're the Band
We're the troubadours of the ages
We're the Band, We're the Band
We're the fire that rocks the soul
Unless you want to end right here
Sit back down and drink your beer
You don't understand, we're the band
We're the band, we're the band, we're the band

Phone calls made, expenses paid, we hit AC by eight
Our agent and the owner man snapped, "You know you boys are late
We're gonna have to take it out of next weeks pay
Now get your butts up there and play
And if you don't like it y'all can just pack up and leave

We're the Band, We're the Band
We're the troubadours of the ages
We're the Band, We're the Band
We're the fire that rocks the soul
Strange disease is in our soul, they used to call it rock n roll
You don't understand, we're the band
We're the band, we're the band, we're the band

Well by nine we we rockin' the club so hot
Everybody taking everything we got
Hot lights burning but we gave our best
Pure sweat-music rolling down our chest
We had 'em by the collar eating out of our hand
When someone in the crowd say, "Hey man
Don't you know any rap songs?

No, no, NO, We're the Band
We're the Band, We're the Band
We're the fire that rocks the soul
Strange disease is in our soul, they used to call it rock n roll
You don't understand, we're the band
We're the band, we're the band, we're the band
