It wasn’t easy having an only friend
But «give it time» that’s what my mother said
We would laugh walking to school
Breakin the Kent’s out and flickin the Kools
Half a mile to Goshen Well
A body not goin anywhere
I said «easy does it»
But that friend of mine
He took the long way every time
I was a baby I was an ugly fool
But it was young and it was ugly too
We took a turn, burning the teeth
And then I did what he wanted to see
