John Oates - He Was a Friend of Mine lyrics

He, he was a friend of mine He, he was a friend of mine Every time I hear his name Lord, I can't keep from cryin' He, he was a friend of mine He never done no wrong He never done no wrong Now he was just a poor boy Such a long way from home He was a friend of mine He, he died on the road He, he died on the road Oh, he died on the road Never had no money Oh, to pay for his board He died on the road He, he was a friend of mine You know he, he was a friend of mine He never had no money For to pay for his fine He was a friend He, he was a friend of mine
