No News

It's been a minute since I seen you, my old friend
Cigarettes and neon brought me here
We fell outta touch, we both thought the world was over
It feels good to sit and drink a beer

For once I can't complain
When you ask 'bout "what's her name?"
Lately, she's the last thing on my mind
And I don't feel a thing when that telephone does ring
Lonely don't send shivers down my spine

I've seen so much thunder and rain
No, the winds ain't been blowing my way
It might seem like I don't have nothing to say, man
But no news is good news these days
Yeah, no news is good news these days

I've been listening to records
I ain't dusted off in decades
Wrenching on that nova in the yard
I tried huntin', golf, and fishing
But I'm too broke for those addictions
So I'm back to shootin' shit down at the bar

I've seen so much thunder and rain
No, the winds ain't been blowing my way
And it might seem like I don't have nothing to say, man
But no news is good news these days
Yeah, no news is good news these days

No news means I might be doing alright
No news means I ain't going out of my mind

I've seen so much thunder and rain
And the winds ain't been blowing my way
And I seem like I don't have nothing to say, man
But no news is good news these days
Yeah, no news is good news these days
