Lyrics
Best Friend
By R. Mack Harrell
Feel the power
Lose the pain
Call me when ya need me
But never use my real name
I'm your pretty poppie baby
And you're sick again
I'm such a pretty poppie
I'm your best friend
You first met me
At your prom
Now you got my initials
Tattooed all over your arm
And you need me, need me, need me
More than smoke or gin
I'm such a pretty poppie
I'm your best friend
I'm Aunt Jemima
China White
I'm the only one
Who always treats you right
Sniff me through a dollar
Open up a vein
Once you take a couple rides
You can't get off this train
I'm just a pretty little poppie
And you're sick again
I'm such a pretty poppie
I'm your best friend
You can't pretend... I'm your best friend
I'm your best friend...
