My Friend

We grown now
You my only father and the only father I've known
And you old now
Bet your bottom dollar
If it's up to me you wouldn't be alone, no no
You home now.. Smoking on the bong
Hoping Sonny gonna phone like yeh
I'm gone to, but to be quite honest
I need you more than you need you, and that's true
But I know, I know, I know, I know
It's times like these
When family is the one
And only thing we need, to get by
I know, I know, I know, I know I ain't no saint
Neither is you I'm just you in a different way, so I say
If I got you then I know I got something
If we ain't time then we ain't got nothing
Ain't got hate then we ain't got lovin
If we ain't got each other than we ain't got nothin
It's all on you my friend
It's all on you my friend
It's all on you my friend
It's all on you my friend
We grown now, you my only father
And the only father I've known
And you so down, similar to me
I'm hearin me up in ya every-time you phone, so you know
Just slow down, only 59 got some life ahead of you so just roll
Don't go down, the same damn road you've been
Heading since mama let go, now
If I got you then I know I got something
If we ain't time then we ain't got nothing
Ain't got hate then we ain't got lovin
If we ain't got each other than we ain't got nothin
If I got you then I know I got something
If we ain't time then we ain't got nothing
Ain't got hate then we ain't got lovin
If we ain't got each other than we ain't got nothin
It's all on you my friend
It's all on you my friend
It's all on you my friend
It's all on you my friend
But I know, I know, I know, I know
It's times like these
When family is the one
And only thing we need, to get by
I know, I know, I know, I know I ain't no saint
Neither is you I'm just you in a different way, so I say
If I got you then I know I got something
If we ain't time then we ain't got nothing
Ain't got hate then we ain't got lovin
If we ain't got each other than we ain't got nothin
If I got you then I know I got something
If we ain't time then we ain't got nothing
Ain't got hate then we ain't got lovin
If we ain't got each other than we ain't got nothin
It's all on you my friend
It's all on you my friend
It's all on you my friend
It's all on you my friend
