A Friend Of Mine Lyrics - Singles - Gilbert Osullivan

Good morning Mary Ann 

And how are you upon this bright 

And sunny morning 

I hear your brother Ted 

Got caught for speeding 

But was let off with a warning 

I hope he's learnt his lesson 

And the next time he goes out will drive with care 

It doesn't pay to drive too fast 

All it does is make your life last shorter 

I know you won't believe this 

But it happens to be true 

I am a loner 

My only real companion is dog I'm very fond of 

His name's Homer 

He follows me wherever I go 

And of course I do my best to feed him 

It's not the easiest of tasks 

When you consider unlike cats 

They're broader 

Do what you want to within reason 

But remember take your time 

Nothing stops for those 

Who can't afford to wait 

The best advice that I can give you 

Is to hold on to your head 

And as long as you are good and kind 

You'll always be a friend of mine 

And it's true to say that a good friend is hard to find 

But I'd like to think that you are 

A friend of mine 

Good morning Sarah Jane 

And how are you today 

Tell me is that your mother 

She looks a lot like you 

Though come to think of it 

You look like one another 

It's funny how with likenesses 

Most people have a difference of opinion 

They said that I was like my dad 

Now they say that I'm just like his daughter 

Do what you want to within reason 

But remember take your time 

Nothing stops for those 

Who can't afford to wait 

The best advice that I can give you 

Is to hold on to your head 

And as long as you are good and kind 

You'll always be a friend of mine 

You'll always be a friend of mine 

As long as you are good and kind 

You'll always be a friend of mine 

A friend in need is a friend indeed 

You'll always be a friend of mine
