Text: Marianne Faithfull. Before the Poison. My Friends Have.

My friends have many features
Many reasons, I can believe them
My friends have many things that
I am needing to keep me singing

Yeah, you're a friend of mine
You're a friend of mine
Yeah, you're a friend of mine
You're a friend of mine

My friends have many mountains
Many mountains that I can breathe in
My friends have many houses
Many caves that I can choose to live in

Yeah, you're a friend of mine
I love these friends of mine
You're a friend for life
I love these friends of mine

My friends have many pathways
Many roads that I can choose to take
My friends have many highways
Where I can find my way back home again

You're a friend of mine
I love these friends of mine
You're a friend for life
I love these friends of mine

My friends have always been there
To help me shape my crooked features
My friends have picked me up again
And pushed my enemies out of the picture

Yeah, you're a friend of mine
You're a friend of mine
Yeah, you're a friend of mine
You're a friend for life

I love these friends of mine
I love these friends of mine
You're a friend of mine
I love these friends of mine
