John Prine Be My Friend Tonight Lyrics

I threw a party. Nobody came
I bought all the tickets. They cancelled the game.
I give you my picture. It didn't fit your frame
Be my friend tonight
horus
Be my friend tonight. Be my friend tonight.
I'll sleep on the couch. You can leave on that light.
Well, I won't do nothing wrong till you say it's right
Come on Honey, be my friend tonight
Now you bring the glasses and I'll bring the wine
I'll rub your shoulders just like they were mine
I won't make no passes just passing time
If your're only gonna be my buddy tonight
horus
Be my friend tonight. Be my friend tonight.
I'll sleep on the couch. You can leave on that light.
Well, I won't do nothing wrong till you say it's right
Come on Honey, be my friend tonight
Instrumental
(Same progression as Verse)
Well, I'll mind my manners. My P's and Q's
I won't give you nothing that you can't use
I'll whip out that old guitar and sing you the blues
Be my friend tonight
horus
Be my friend tonight. Be my friend tonight.
I'll sleep on the couch. You can leave on that light.
Well, I won't do nothing wrong till you say it's right
Come on Honey, be my friend tonight
Be my friend tonight. Be my friend tonight.
I'll sleep on the couch. You can leave on that light.
Well, I won't do nothing wrong till you say it's right
Come on Honey, be my friend tonight
