Friend of Mine

Heartache is a friend of mine

We go back a long time

We pour a couple stiff drinks

And talk until we fall asleep

We’ve always been thick as thieves

We’re probably always gonna be

We get along just fine

'Cause heartache is a friend of mine

You may think I ride alone

Nothing but a rolling stone

Flying like a lonesome dove

But I’ll tell you, one friend’s enough

We’ve always been right as rain

Some things, they don't ever change

We get along just fine

'Cause heartache is a friend of mine

Oh, so throw me to the wolves

And tie my hands behind my back

I'm used to making hell-good company

I’ve been through it all before

It’s just another scuff on my boots

My shadow ain’t no stranger to me

No, I ain't as alone as I seem

'Cause heartache is a friend of mine

We tend to toe the same line

When the world is mean and cold

We stick together brother close

Once he’s there, he never leaves

But he don’t really wear on me

We get along just fine

'Cause heartache is a friend of mine

Whoa, so throw me to the wolves

And tie my hands behind my back

I'm used to making hell-good company

I’ve been through it all before

It’s just another scuff on my boots

My shadow ain’t no stranger to me

Oh, I ain't as alone as I seem

'Cause heartache is a friend of mine

Oh, it’s a friend of mine
