If I closed my eyes it didn´t hurt quite so bad ´cos tonight I´ve just lost the best friend I´ve ever had You were a maverick running all away 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 My work is done I can feel it in my bones.
