My Friend (So Long)

I heard your record on the telephone
 It was my cousin, Joan
 She picked it up and that's up 40 rack and then
 I read your interview in Rolling Stone
 You threw the boys a bone
 And so I genuinely felt obliged to call
 I know you never meant to hurt us, man
 We're just a baby band
 You found a quicker way, to scale the wall of fame
 The situation's awfully dim
 Should we up and go with him?
 No way, no way, 1, 2, 3, 4
 We know exactly where you are, and you're gone
 (My friend)
 Don't know exactly where you're coming from
 You've gone away
 (My friend)
 We know exactly where you are, and you're gone
 (My friend)
 Don't know exactly where you're coming from
 You've gone astray
 I saw your video on VH1
 Looks like they spent a ton
 How does it feel to be the flavor for a spell
 And I remember when you used to say
 "Jesus is the way"
 I never thought I'd see your light begin to fade
 The situation's awfully dim
 Should we up and go with him?
 No way, no way, 1, 2, 3, 4
 We know exactly where you are, and you're gone
 (My friend)
 Don't know exactly where you're coming from
 You've gone away, so long
 (My friend)
 We know exactly where you are, and you're gone
 (My friend)
 Don't know exactly where you're coming from
 And you've gone astray, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
 Don't think we don't miss you
 Think about you every day
 We still love you anyway
 'S Love don't go away
 There's still this burning question
 I got to know, why?
 What will people think when they
 Hear that I'm a Jesus freak?
 Ah, ah, ah, hey
 (While this is something of fantasy)
 (The moral of the story is)
 (To stick with your friends)
 Ah, ah, ah, ah, hey
 Ah, ah, ah, hey
 Ah, ah, ah, hey, hey, 1, 2, 3, 4
 We know exactly where you are, and you're gone
 (My friend)
 Don't know exactly where you're coming from
 You've gone away, somehow
 (My friend)
 We know exactly where you are, and you're gone
 (My friend)
 Don't know exactly where you're coming from
 And you've gone astray, so long
 (My friend)
 Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, and you're gone
 (My friend)
 Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, so long
 Oh, you've gone away
 (My friend)
 Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, and you're gone
 (My friend)
 Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, so long
 We'll see you someday
 Wish you well
 Na, na, na, na, na, my friend
