Story Behind The Song

This song was written for a dear friend who died of cancer. It's a ppersonel song for me that celebrates his life ans times and the great memories we all had together with him.

Song Description

Being with friends and playing music. Time spent together that money can't buy. About how memories fade even with the ones you love.

Lyrics

This old friend of mine ain?t rich but the woman he loves is heaven sent

This old friend of mine you see is only lonely for the opportunity

To play some music and have some fun let those needless worries let them be gone

No this old friend of mine ain?t rich, this old friend of mine



CHORUS

Play a little guitar with my good old friend

Give me someone to laugh with when this world runs you thin

Come a little closer now baby when it?s cold outside

Let my arms hold you close until the sun hits the sky
BRIDGE
It?s those same memories that would call on me baby

They would carry me all night long

Someday those same memories will be fading away

VERSE 2
This old friend of mine I?ll tell ya, help you drift away with the stories he?ll tell ya

Of singing and drinking and women and tears all the adventures and places over so many years

Now this old friend hell he?s one of a kind that ace in the hole when nothing seems to go right

No this old friend of mine aint rich, this old friend of mine



BRIDGE

CHORUS X2


This old friend of mine : x3
