friends


by nick nelson




i had a friend named joe
that was a while ago
i had a friend named john
but he is long gone

i had a friend named mac
but he is not coming back
i had a friend named bill
he disappeared over the hill

had a friend named stan
he was a strange man
i had a friend named clyde
he took me for a ride

i had a friend named jones
cheated me of all i owned
and i had a friend named smith
who was no one to mess with

o mother your misbegotten son
can’t get along with anyone
and will go his solitary way
to the end of his days

all those friends i had
treated me pretty bad
but i will wish them all well
when we meet again in hell
