The Grascals Lyrics
Me And John And Paul
Johnny live next door to me
And Paul lived down the block
We'd meet each day at my house
Sharp at six o'clock
We'd race the bikes to school
And Paul would always win
Johnny said that's cause we're nine
And Paul had just turned ten
First day of high school on the way to my first class
Three football players said they wouldn't let me pass
Well, I set my books down and I rolled up my sleeves
And then I noticed there were two boys next to me
It was me and John and Paul
The best friends you ever saw
All for one and one for all
It was me and John and Paul
I wonder why they call it graduation day
It's more like a funeral for youth that's passed away
Paul says he's leaving for the army in two weeks
And Johnny said, let's go to town
And make some memories
It was me and John and Paul
The best friends you ever saw
All for one and one for all
It was me and John and Paul
Years later I heard Paul came back from the Gulf War
So I flew up to Tennessee to visit him once more
It didn't shock me none to hear that he'd been brave
He'd lost his own life but another one he saved
I waited by a tree til everyone had left
And I went up and said a prayer were my pal slept
And then I heard a voice I hadn't heard in years
I didn't need to turn around
I knew just who was there
It was me and John and Paul
The best friends you ever saw
All for one and one for all
It was me and John and Paul
It was me and John and Paul
The best friends you ever saw
All for one and one for all
It was me and John and Paul
