5 Chinese Brothers - My Friend Lyrics
(tom meltzer)For neil youngFound a dirt road beneath my feetMust have wandered off the main streetWhen I was looking up instead of looking downI was enjoying the city sightsWanted to compare them with the northern lightsI guess thats how I wound up way outside of townNow Im wondering if I should go backOr search around for an unbeaten trackI wish that you were here to show me howOh my friend, oh my friendIm wondering what you would do nowcause I wasted my good looksOh television and beerAnd cynical heroes with nothing to sayNow Im living in my second stageBetween my youth and my middle ageHope when its over I dont feel the same wayJust because youve left the bad behindDoesnt guarantee what youll findSo Im thinking of you to make me strongOh my friend, oh my friendAm I going where I belong150 rum by the double shotWarmed up in an aluminum potIm trading my tomorrows for todayLifes a gamble when you dont toe the lineI want to let it ride every timeWinning or losing, learning something along the wayIf this song sounds like a fan letterIts cause you just keep getting betterI want to thank you for your high and lonesome soundOh my friend, oh my friendThank God theres still good friends around
