Nanci Griffith - He Was A Friend Of Mine lyrics

rate me

(Traditional)

He was a friend of mine

He was a friend of mine

Never had no money

To pay for his fine

He was a friend of mine

He never done no wrong

He never done no wrong

Thousand miles from home

He never hurt no one

He was a friend of mine

He died on the road

He died on the road

Never had no money for to pay for sufficient clothes

(He was a friend)

He was a friend of mine

(I stole)

I stole away and cried

(I stole)

Never had no money and I can't be satisfied

He was a friend of mine

(He was)he was a friend of mine

(He was) he was a friend of mine

When I hear his name you know

I just can't keep from cryin' (and)

(He was) he was a friend of mine

(He was)
