He was a friend of mine
Never had no money never was satisfied
He was a friend of mine
He died on the road
He was just a poor boy long way from home
He was a friend of mine
I sat right down and I cried
When I think about him
Sometimes I just can't keep from cryin'
He was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
Never had no money never was satisfied
He was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
