lyrics

Down the road when I was young
Lived my best friend Tug
We spit on dirt
And hit the road
And played beneath the tractor
Remember the day he learned to vanish
Away from human sight

My best friend Tug was invisible
What a holy terror
Hooray, hooray fro the good old days
Hiding to look at the girls like a bug with my friend Tug.

I heard he was dead in the war
But I just got a call from Tug
Faded just as the bullet hit
Sustaining minimal damage
Traveled down to Jamaica town
Started a reggae band

Tug come on back to our Southern town
Your reggae band I’ll manage
Hooray, hooray for the good old days.
Let’s bring them back you crazy lug.
My crazy bonehead Tug.
