He Was A Friend Of Mine
[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]
