I've Got Friends

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Dirt in the ground is what I need

I got another one to tell you

and another one to make you believe

pity in the grass tried to be

the one you needed when I told you

that you wanted something bigger than me

I've got friends in all the right places

I know what they want

and I know they don't want me to stay

I said that I've got friends in all the right places

I know what they want

and I know they don't want me to stay

'cause you are not alive

when I need you

I need it quickly

in case you never know

I can't play where I'm not supposed to anyway

dirt in the ground is what I see

I need another reason why

I need another reason, tell me to breathe

the dirtier the sound, the best I breathe

I tried to do it all for you

it didn't do anything for me

'cause I've got friends in all the right places

I know what they want

and I know they don't want me to stay

I've got friends in all the right places

I know what they want

and I know they don't want me to stay

and you and I will find

that when I need you

I need it quickly

in fact, you'll never know

I've got friends in all the right places

I know what they want

and I know they don't want me to stay

I said that I've got friends in all the right places

I know what they want

and I know they don't want me to stay.
