Hoyt Axton - Snowblind Friend lyrics

You say it was this mornin' when
You last saw your good friend
Lyin' on the sidewalk with the
Misery on his brain
Stoned on some new potion he
Found upon the wall
Of some unholy bathroom in some ungodly hall

He only had a dollar to
Live on ‘till next Monday
But he spent it all on comfort for his mind
Did you say you think he's blind?

Someone should call his parents or
A sister or a brother
And they'll come and take him
Back home on a bus
But he'll always be a problem to
His poor and puzzled mother
And he'll always be another one of us

He said he wanted heaven but
Prayin' was too slow
So he bought a one-way ticket on
An airline made of snow
Did you say you saw your
Good friend flyin' low?

You say it was this mornin' when
You last saw your good friend
Lyin' on the sidewalk with the
Misery on his brain
Stoned on some new potion he
Found upon the wall
Of some unholy bathroom in some ungodly hall

Did you say you saw your
Good friend flyin' low dyin' slow
Blinded by snow?
