He Was A Friend Of Mine

He Was A Friend Of Mine - Dave Van Ronk
He was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
Every time I hear his name
cause his friend he was a friend of mine
He died on the road
He died on the road
He never had no money
For paying his clothing
He was a friend of mine
He never done no wrong
He never done no wrong
He was just a poor boy
Long way from home
He was a friend of mine
I stole away stole away and cried
I stole away and cried
I never had no money
And I can't be satisfied
He was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
When I hear his name
I just can't keep from crying
he was a friend of mine
