You Were A Good Friend

You Were A Good Friend
If I close my eyes
It doesn’t hurt quite so bad
Cos tonight I just lost
The best friend I ever had
You were a maverick
Running all the way from New Orleans
We’d tell stories round the campfire
Late at night, when it was down to just you and me

Good friend, why did you have to go
Just when I was getting to know you
I’ll sing this song to show you were a good friend
They don’t make ‘em quite like you
And in my memory you’ll always be a good, good friend to me
You said I got a home, boy
Haven’t seen it for so long
Said I’m going home, boy
I can feel it in my bones
Good friend, why did you have to go
Just when I was getting to know you
I’ll sing this song to show you were a good friend
They don’t make ‘em quite like you
And in my memory you’ll always be a good, good friend to me
Good friend, why did you have to go
Just when I was getting to know you
I’ll sing this song to show you were a good friend
They don’t make ‘em quite like you
And in my memory you’ll always be a good friend to me
And in my memory you’ll always be a good, good friend to me
