Coming out of New Jersey, I've always been a big fan of Texas songwriters
So I was coming down this way, I get a chance to meet a few of my friends
The folks whose work I admired
One fellow's been putting out good records for so long, he's gonna come up
Alejandro Escovedo is going to see us
She'll be alright, huh?
Alright, who's got it?
Nils
One, two, three, four
Wasn't I always a friend to you?
Wasn't I always a friend to you?
Do you wanna be my friend?
Do you wanna be my friend?
Every once in a while, honey, let your love show
Every once in a while, honey, let yourself go
Nobody gets hurt, no, no
Nobody gets hurt
Well, we came here as two, we laid down as one
I don't care if I'm not your only one
What I see in you, you see in me
But if I do you wrong, smoke my smoke, drink my wine
Bury my snake skin boots somewhere I'll never find
Still be your lover, baby
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Wasn't I always a friend to you?
Wasn't I always a friend to you?
Do you wanna be my friend?
Do you wanna be my friend?
Every once in a while, honey, let yourself go
Every once in a while, honey, let your love show
Nobody gets hurt, no, no
Nobody gets hurt
Well, I could be an astronaut on the wrong side of the moon
Or wrapped up like a baby on a bus home to you
Wherever I go, you go with me
But if I do you wrong, take the master suite, I'll take the floor
Sleep in late, get your rest, I'll get mine
Still be your lover, baby
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Wasn't I always a friend to you?
Wasn't I always a friend to you?
Every once in a while, honey, let your love show
Every once in a while, honey, let yourself go, yeah
Nobody gets hurt, it's only love, love, love
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Wasn't I always a friend to you?
Wasn't I always a friend to you?
Wasn't I always a friend to you?
Wasn't I always a friend to you?
Alejandro Escovedo
