We were just kids, raisin' hell in the dirt,
With scraped-up knees and a little grease on our shirts
We've been through the highs, we've been through the lows,
But wherever we wandered, we knew where to go
From the first sip we stole in the back of the barn,
To toastin' each other when life did us harm
No matter the road or the mountains we'd climb,
We had each other, time after time
It's brothers and bourbon that got me this far,
Laughter and tears, and a well-worn guitar
Through heartache and trouble, come what may,
We'd raise up our glasses at the end of the day
We may stumble, we may fall,
But I know who to call when I lose it all
With brothers and bourbon, the world makes sense,
In the arms of the ones you can always depend
We've watched the sun set from the tailgate at night,
Talkin' 'bout dreams while the stars took flight
Through women and work, and the storms we survived,
It's a miracle we made it out alive
Now time's passed by, but the stories remain,
Of whiskey-fueled nights and dancin' in the rain
We've laughed 'til it hurt, and cried 'til we broke,
But brother, we never gave up the hope
It's brothers and bourbon that got me this far,
Laughter and tears, and a well-worn guitar
Through heartache and trouble, come what may,
We'd raise up our glasses at the end of the day
We may stumble, we may fall,
But I know who to call when I lose it all
With brothers and bourbon, the world makes sense,
In the arms of the ones you can always depend
So here's to the nights we ain't forgot,
To the wild times, whether right or not
To the way whiskey burns and brings out the truth,
And to the brothers I've had since my youth
It's brothers and bourbon that got me this far,
Laughter and tears, and a well-worn guitar
Through heartache and trouble, come what may,
We'd raise up our glasses at the end of the day
We may stumble, we may fall,
But I know who to call when I lose it all
With brothers and bourbon, the world makes sense,
In the arms of the ones you can always depend
Yeah, when life gets heavy, and I'm feelin' burned,
It's brothers and bourbon that always return
Through the miles and years, there ain't no pretend,
Brothers and bourbon, until the end.
