That Friday night seemed just like any other. Friday night,Jimmy wasn't gonna play.. Sitting on the bench chomping at the bit, knowing he was better..
Yeah, the sun is settin' on a hard day's work. Sure feels good to get 'er all done. Washed off the sweat, the hay and the dirt. Now it's time to have some fun.
