I had a good friend, sometime ago

We had a good thing

And we let it show

Oh I was a fool

I let him go

Oh oh oh, how I miss him so



I had a woman

Who's love was strong

She gave me her freedom

And I let her run

Oh, I was a fool I let her go

Oh oh oh, how I miss her so



I knew a fine man

So strong with strife

He ran for election

And he lost his life

Oh, I was a fool 

I let him go

Oh oh oh, how I miss him so

Oh oh oh oh oh, how I miss him so

Ah ah ah ah ah, how I miss him so
