Two Skinny Kids

Mark Knopfler

The Everly Brothers are back in town my friend

Will they ever be, they may never be back again

First time around

They all loved their sound

They're back in town my friend

Their daddy took them to the county fair

Especially to see them from Tennessee

They were there (They ... out?)

No money for the gate

He took them to the fence and he said to wait

He took them to the county fair

They saw two skinny kids with dusty shoes

Peeking through the fence, at the instruments, begging you

They'll die just to meet with you

Chet, you know they sing good too

Two skinny kids with dusty shoes

Gibson made them Everly guitars

Black as ebony

((a guitar part?)..in ivory?)

They make the stars

Songs from Dan and Lesley (??) (two names!?)

And a little Bo Diddley

With them everly guitars

Look where all the years have gone

Singing harmony, you were usually Phil and I was Don

That's how we used to play

Or was it rather the other way?

Look where all the years have gone
