Lyrics:

If I closed my eye-eyes It did't hurt quite so ba-a-ad 'Cause tonight I just lo-o-ost The best friend I ever ha-a-ad You were a maveri-ick Runnin' all away from New Orlea-eans We'd tell stories 'round the campfire Late at night when it was down To just you and me-ee-ee Good friend Why did you have to go? Just when I was gettin' to know you I'll sing this song to show You were a goo-ood friend They don't make 'em quite like you And in my memory you'll always be A good good frie-iend to me You said I got a home, boy-oy Haven't seen it for so lo-o-ong Said I'm goin' home, boy-oy My work is done I can feel it in my bo-o-ones Good friend Why did you have to go? Just when I was gettin' to know you I'll sing this song to show You were a good friend They don't make 'em quite like you And in my memory you'll always be A good good frie-iend to me Good-good friend Why did you have to go? Just when I was gettin' to know you I'll sing this song to show You were a good friend They don't make 'em quite like you And in my memory you'll always be A goo-ood friend to me And in my memory you'll always be A good good frie-iend - to me...
