Old Friend

My old friend, I'll see you again, another day
We can talk and laugh and drink the night away
Like we did, my old friend

We were kids, no you did not have a home
So you hung around
We'd stay up all night long
We'd pretend, that we were big
We were kids

You grew up harder than I did
You found the nightlife
You drug us both in

And we'd raise cain like raising cane was going out
Because we never thought much about gettnig old anway
Now I'm finding that I wish i could go back, once again
My old friend

No you never let me down, as years went by
You went on your way, and I went mine
Like the wind, my old friend

You grew old faster than I did,
you know that nightlife, will do you in
You raised cane until the cane was all burned out
Now I hope for both our sakes, that I grow old

And I'm still finding that I wish that could go back, once again
My old friend, I'll see you again, another day,
We can talk and laugh and bow our heads and pray,
Like we did, my old friend,
My old friend,
My old friend,
My old friend
