Appears on where'd you get that vibe? .



Lyrics:



I got a friend named eric

Used to play that mean guitar

Played that guitar

While he was laying beneath the stars

Looking up to the wind he'd say

"my girlfriend it's for you"

Philosophy is all grand

But all good is not the truth

We can make a movie

In ityou can be the star

Bobbybobby could be your brother

He could play guitar

We can say we'll lose the beat

And I'll get the rhythm list

My friend eric turned into such a fine mess

He used to take medicine

It used to make him sick

He would have to leave his place

And make a big trip

A road trip to bahama beach

With palm babies in the sun

He'd just go tasting all those juices

Licking some of that fun

He says now

"brother lets go down under the board walk

You bring the cocoa oil

I'll bring the soda pop

I'll fall in love that girl-

She's dancing in the sun"

His name is e-r-i-c

He's so high he's so fly

He says come on

Oheric used to play guitar

On wednesday nights

And the gypsy blues would sing

Well he made me think

It made me want to play

Yeahmy friend eric

Was a damn good player on the guitar

Why his guitar would sing

And the gypsy bluesthey would reign

He says now

"bobby I must get back to see my pa

He's sad and lonely

Tells me 'boy you're my only star'

Don't sweat it

I'll be back in three weeks time or less

My name is e-r-i-c

I must happily confessyes"
