He Was A Friend Of Mine

He was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
Every time I think of him
I just can't keep from cryin'
'cause he was a friend of mine

He died on the road
He died on the road
Just kept from moving
Never reached what he could sought
And he was a friend of mine

~間奏~

I stole away and cried
I stole away and cried
'cause I never had too much money
And I never been quite satisfied
And he was a friend of mine

He never done no wrong
He never done no wrong
A thousand miles from home
And he never harmed no one
And he was a friend of mine

~間奏~

He was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
Every time I hear his name
Lord I just can't keep from cryin'
'cause he was a friend of mine
