Songtexte Old Friend - The Allman Brothers Band

You know hard times
Just an old friend, just an old friend to me
I say hard times
Just an old friend, just an old friend to me
Tell me now old friend
Oh, when you gonna let me be?

Can't you feel a cold wind
Howlin' down, blowin' my song?
Can't you feel a cold wind
It's howlin' down, blowin' my song?
Well, I ain't an old man
Oh, but you know my time ain't long

Gonna be a hard rain
I hear it in the distance, sounds so near
Gonna be a hard rain
Can't you hear it in the distance, sounds so near?
People when the rain comes
Oh, it's gonna wash us all away from here

Mean old woman
People won't you tell me where can she be?
Mean old woman
Oh, people won't you tell me where can she be?
She's the only woman
Oh, that ever meant a damn to me

You know hard times
Just an old friend, just an old friend to me
I say hard times
Just an old friend, just an old friend to me

Tell me now old friend
Oh, when you gonna let me be?
Tell me now old friend
Oh, when you gonna let me be?
Tell me now old friend
When you gonna let this poor man be?
