Wayne Mills - Friendly Companion Lyrics
We drove through the slow rainFrom Fort Worth to HoustonWith no conversationBut we had a ballReminiscing's a thin lineBetween heartache and good timesSo we laughed and cried at them allOne after one the stories went onSome sad and most of them trueWhen you're all alone so far away from homeWho do you turn to?CHORUSFriendly companion sing me a songShow me a daydream so I can move onFriendly companion I'll sing alongTo all of your storiesOf ex-wives and knife fightsBar rooms and bright lightsTure love at first sight and how she's done you wrongSing me a honky-tonk songThank you, Waylon, for your companyNow hop in the back and wake up old HankHe's ridin' shotgun with meCHORUSFriendly companion sing me a songShow me a daydream so I can move onFriendly companion I'll sing alongTo all of your storiesOf ex-wives and knife fightsBar rooms and bright lightsTure love at first sight and how she's done you wrongSing me a honky-tonk songAbout ex-wives and knife fightsBar rooms and bright lightsTure love at first sight and how she's done you wrongPlay me a honky-tonk song
