| THE BYRDS: HE WAS A FRIEND OF MINE He was a friend of mine, he was a friend of mine His killing had no purpose, no reason or rhyme He was a friend of mine He was in Dallas town, he was in Dallas town From a sixth floor window a gunner shot him down He was in Dallas town He never knew my name, he never knew my name Though I never met him I knew him just the same Oh he was a friend of mine Leader of a nation for such a precious time He was a friend of mine. | DAVE VAN RONK - " HE WAS A FRIEND OF MINE " 1976 Speaker: “Our friend Phil Ochs is laid to rest but if we have the vision and the courage and the compassion his dream and his song will live in us “ He was a friend of mine He was a friend of mine He never had no money To pay for his fines. He never done no wrong He never done no wrong Thousand miles from home He never hurt no one. He was a friend of mine He died on the road He died on the road He never had no money for sufficient clothes He was a friend of mine I stole away and cried I stole away and cried 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, you know, I just can't keep from crying He was a friend of mine |
