lirik lagu pa sheehy - my old friend john
[verse 1]
my old friend john is lost
he’s just the one that got caught
he’s been searching forever, for something
for everything that he lost
got sober together
brothers in arms
but when he goes missing
oh it’s time for somebody to sound the alarm
[chorus]
he sits in the back of my mind all the time
he don’t drink the water, he worships the wine
and the people say, “why does he do it?”
and the worst part is i know why
[verse 2]
said goodbye to his mother, he used [to find?]
and his father before he was nine
his only brother moved away from here
so it’s just john by himself all the time
he walks all the streets here
he knows every yard
john seems to know where he’s goin’
last week he wrote off his car
he once bought a six string
to find some piece of mind
but the music won’t talk to him right
now his fingers are bleeding along with his pride
[chorus]
he sits in the back of my mind all the time
he don’t drink the water, he worships the wine
and the people say, “why does he do it?”
and the worst part is i know why
[verse 3]
my and john said we’d make ground
spent the summertime in [?] town
well i tried to get a degree
and john worked the bar in o’neills
for a while we didn’t do bad
we saved all the money we had
was the top shelf that came for our pounds
was it any surprise that it came crashing down?
[chorus]
he sits in the back of my mind all the time
he don’t drink the water, he worships the wine
and the people say, “why does he do it?”
and the worst part is i know
he sits in the back of my mind all the time
he don’t drink the water, he worships the wine
and the people say, “why does he do it?”
and the worst part is i know why
[outro]
john bought me a coffee
we sat by the pier
we talked and laughed for a while
we said our goodbyes and then john disappeared
my old friend john is lost
my old friend john is lost
my old friend john is lost
and the worst part is i know why
