I blew in on Tuesday and shook off my blues day And glady indulged in some tea In the time you'd been biding were the songs you'd been writing So you glady sang them to me We talked about old times the good times the bad times And how deep down we're still the same And we talked about women and the hard times we're livin' And how some things just never change Oh old friend I might have gone crazy If I'd lived alone a moment too long I'll keep you strong don't let me get lazy When the rest of the world leaves me blue Old friend thank God I still have you 'Til 3 in the morning we sat there recalling The times of when we were young While nights on the town when the world had us down And the pimps and the songs that they sung And you'll smoke and you'll ask me how did my life just pass me Is it something that I'm doin' wrong And I'll say the answers to all of your questions Is why we've been friends so long Oh old friend I might have gone crazy If I'd lived alone a moment too long I'll keep you strong don't let me get lazy When the rest of the world leaves me blue Old friend thank God I still have you When the rest of the world leaves me blue Old friend, thank God I still have you Oh I'm sure glad I do
