Tony Joe White My Friend
Just a tag along
Always in the way
You was so silly then
My friend
The patter of your feet
Followed me down the street
But I didn't know you then
My friend
From pigtails and playing with dolls
And all those childish things
You've became a woman
With all the beautiness it BRings
When I had my chance
I didn't make my plea
I was so foolish then
My friend
But now you're the star of the show
But you don't notice me
Oh how things might have been
My friend
Now I remember when you use to follow me round the
block
Huh and I'ld chase you away
Now I wonder why I couldn't see that you changed your
childish ways
And you become a woman and uh what a woman!
Just a tag along
Uh you was always in my way
You was so silly then
My friend
The patter of your feet
Uh you followed me down the street
But I didn't know you then
My friend
