My Friend Lyrics
(Tom Meltzer)for Neil Young Found 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 that's how I wound up way outside of townNow I'm 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 friendI'm wondering what you would do now'Cause I wasted my good looksOh television and beerAnd cynical heroes with nothing to sayNow I'm living in my second stageBetween my youth and my middle ageHope when it's over I don't feel the same wayJust because you've left the bad behindDoesn't guarantee what you'll findSo I'm 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 potI'm trading my tomorrows for todayLife's a gamble when you don't toe the lineI want to let it ride every timeWinning or losing, learning something along the wayIf this song sounds like a fan letterIt's 'cause you just keep getting betterI want to thank you for your high and lonesome soundOh my friend, oh my friendThank God there's still good friends around
