Friend On Crack

from Citizen Clay by Clay Otis & The Dream Sheiks

/

lyrics

I got this friend who started smoking crack
I kinda fear he ain't never coming back
He disappeared eighteen months ago
Last thing we heard he was in sunny Orlando

Living with two prostitutes, Trying to get by
They're alright, as long as they are high
They stay high, so high
Don't ask them why, they must stay high

Just chasing rocks all day
To smoke that pain away
seeking suffering's refrain

Stole a TV from me and money from our friends
Goddammit man, tell me this shit is gon' end
Had the prettiest smile, had the best laugh
Oh Goddamn man, get your life back on this track

Cause we need you and we love ya
oh we miss you, just come on home
Its so dark and so alone
We're here for ya, we need ya
Smile on yr face

Awe tell me man,
Would it be that bad?
Take a lil' break
and go off to rehab
talk about yr problems
just talk about ya life
try and rearrange
and get yo shit tight
We ain't gave up on you
We ain't walking away on you
We wouldn't give up on you
Why would we do that?
When we are here for you
When the world is round, so round
I am down baby, if your down
I am up baby, when you're up
I am here baby, just to lift you up
I am here baby, to not disrupt

C'mon baby, don't give up on me
C'mon baby, don't give up on me
I am here for ya, with love and affection
It ai't cheesy as it seems, its everything we need
we need dat love
we need affection
we need dat love
and so much affection
just bring us your love
we'll bring our affection
just bring us your love
we'll bring our affection
don't give up on me
wouldn't give up on you, wouldn't dream of giving up on you, why would I do that?
