Richey Lee was his father's boy
Big, loud, hard drinkin bundle of joy
A walkin laugh, wrapped up in corduroy
Richey couldn't do no wrong
Grew up with a fast runnin' crowd
Strange days they leave you in wonder
And good times, they don't always stay
And true love it will shake you like thunder
But old friends just fade away, old friends just fade away
Summertime on the river again
