Detour!

Somehow my outlaw buddy song turned into a male friend appreciation song named “That’s What I Get”. I still plan to write a grittier lyric about outlaw buddies and may name it “The Big Stick Rule” as in something along the lines of:

Our friendship ain’t for sissies

We scream and fight, ‘n fuss and cuss

But that’s just us bein’ us

When we get into a barroom brawl

What we do ain’t pretty

And it ain’t always fair

But when The Golden Rule ain’t workin’

That’s why “The Big Stick Rule” is there!
