I thought we were gonna make that bridge, what did I know
|
Me and my expectations was always high
|
"Like a Rolling Stone" is playing on the radio
|
It made you cry
|
But we got by
|
|
CHORUS:
|
My old friend
|
You make me feel young again
|
My old friend
|
You're just as pretty as you were back then
|
|
A Corvair with no floorboards, a Gibson Hummingbird
|
Driving south to the mouth of the riversong
|
|
Patchouli oil and motor oil
|
And you knew all the words
|
Now you're looking fine
|
In a hook-up line
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
BRIDGE:
|
You've got kids, I've got kids
|
And they all want to know
|
Just what is what like when we were young
|
|
I tell them I'm no different now
|
Just late for the show
|
So grab your "Aqualung"
|
The loading has begun
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
My old friend
|
My old friend
|
My old friend
|
