Purgatory Hill

Lyrics

Gracious manner and a drop dead smile
Always make the winning shot
Boys and girls all stand in line
Sure like some of what you got
Perfect hair and eyes of blue
Wish i had a friend like you

Traffic lights don't jack you around
Never do nothing just cause you should
Cat don't get within a foot of your tongue
Always saying what i never could
And there ain't nobody you talk down to
Wish i had a friend like you

Big ol' mansion on the boulevard
Lots of cool cars, a couple trucks
Race track in your back yard
Bank account worth a billion bucks
Always eager to help with a grand or two
Wish i had a friend like you
Wish i had a friend
Wish i had a friend like you

Got no money, got no cares
No visible means of support
Mind your manners and your own affairs
Only do crime as a last resort
If you had three dollars, you'd give me two
Wish i had a friend like you

No strings attached, no dues to pay
The kind of company i like to keep
Never run, never try to get away
Always home and you never sleep
You pick up the phone at half past two
Wish i had a friend
Wish i had a friend like you

Though you're no better than the rest
Of all the above, you know me the best
You share my triumph and my shame
You wear my clothes, you bear my name
I'd never be lonely, never be blue
If i had a friend
If i had a friend
If i had a friend like you
