Welcome to my page dedicated to all of my friends! I could not get everything on this one page, so I made all my friends their own picture pages. To visit these pages, please click on their names below.
~*~Worth of a Friend~*~
Friend is a word that I don't throw around
Though it's used & abused, I still like the sound.
I save it for people who've done right by me
And I know I can count on, if ever need be.
Some of my friends drive big limousines
Own ranches & banks & visit with queens,
And some of my friends are up to their neck
In overdue notes & can't write a check.
They're singers or ropers or writers of prose
And others, God bless'em, can't blow their own nose!
I guess bein' friends doesn't have anything to do
With talent or money or knowin' who's who.
It's a comfortable feelin' when you don't have to care,
'Bout chosin' your words or bein' quite fair.
'Cause friends'll just listen & let go on by
Those words you don't mean & not bat an eye.
It makes a friend happy to see your success.
They're proud of your good side & forgive all the rest.
And that ain't so easy, all of the time,
Sometimes I get crazy & seem to go blind!
Your friend just might have to take you on home,
Or remind you sometime, that you're not alone.
Or ever so gently pull you back to the ground,
When you think you can fly, with no one around.
A hug or a shake, whichever seems right
It's the high point of givin', I'll tell ya tonite,
All worldly riches & tributes of men,
Can't hold a candle to the worth of a friend.
