He Was A Friend Of Mine - Willie Nelson

He was a friend of mine

He was a friend of mine

Every time I think of him

I just can't keep from crying

Cause he was a friend of mine

He died on the road

He died on the road

He just kept on moving

Never reaped what he could sow

And he was a friend of mine

I stole away and cried

I stole away and cried

Cause I never had too much money

And I never been quite satisfied

And he was a friend of mine

He never done no wrong

He never done no wrong

A thousand miles from home

And he never harmed no woman

And he was a friend of mine

He was a friend of mine

He was a friend of mine

Every time I hear his name lord

I just can't keep from crying

Cause he was a friend of mine
