He Was A Friend Of Mine

Nanci Griffith · Other Songs - Nanci Griffith

Oh, 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



And he died on the road, oh, he died on the road

And he never had no money for to pay for sufficient clothes

And he was, he was a friend of mine



Oh, I stole, I stole away and cried

I stole, I stole away and cried

Never had no money and I can't be satisfied, ooh

He was a friend of mine



He was, he was a friend of mine, he was, he was a friend of mine

And 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, he was a friend of mine
