BEST FRIEND
(Mike Cross)

CHORUS
The best friend I ever had has run off with my wife
And left me here alone to face the changes in my life
The best friend a man could have has stole my wife somehow
I never liked him much before but Lord, I love him now


He's the one who'll get to feel her warm and tender touch,
Though if she treats him like she did me, he won't feel it much
In time he'll come to realize the nature of his luck
And he'll love her like a possum on the highway loves a truck
CHORUS

For him to run away with her he must love her a lot
I'd wish him all the best but now he's stuck with what he's got
He didn't have to sneak her off, I would have helped 'em pack
But he'll still be my best friend, long as he don't bring her back
CHORUS

From Mike Cross: High Powered Low Flying Sugar Hill SH-CD1011, 1994
