He Was A Friend Of Mine

He was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
Everytime 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 cry
I stole away and cry
Cause I never had too much money
And 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 one
And he was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
Everytime I hear his name,Lord
I just can't keep from crying
Cause he was a friend of mine
