Lyrics
I was talking to a friend
Just the other day
He was so down-hearted
I couldn't think of nothing to say
I was talking to a friend, mine
Just the other day
He was so down-hearted
I couldn't think of nothing to say
"Say, what happened to you, brother
To make you weep and moan?
Did your partner leave you broke and alone?
What happened to you, brother
To make you weep and moan?
Did your partner leave you?
Are you broke and alone?"
"Did you get a letter in the mail
Was it all bad news?
You can tell me all about it
And why you feeling so blue
You get a letter in the mail
Was it all bad news?
You can tell me all about it
Why you feeling so blue?"
"You got something in your eye?
You need a drink?
You want to go for a walk?
You wanna know what I think?
I think you got something in your eye
Do you need a drink?
You wanna go for a walk?
Do you wanna know what I think?"
"Maybe your dog just died
Maybe you got a flat
I hope your dog is okay
I sure can't help you with that
Maybe your dog just died
Maybe you got a flat
Your dog's okay?
Man I can't help you with that"
"Say, I'd better go to work
I just can't sit around here and talk
You look like you're feeling better
Something I did must've worked
I'd better go to work, man
I can't just sit around here and talk
You look like you're feeling better anyway
Something I did must've worked"
