"You gon'a sleep all mornin', Bud?" We get up for the day Breakfast first, or else we're both wild animals He walked over in such a way An older version of my pal An abandoned soul A loyal, trusting friend He makes me whole He's a tired old ten Was always horrible with words Got homesick a lot, too Always had to be with Ma and Pa For me, there's nothing he wouldn't do "You stop to smell the roses, Bud?" I love long walks On the beach A flaky line, but it mocks I want to teach you about Meech He lays down Breathless, aching body But oh man that was a great walk His smile doesn't dare frown A lonely soul Last night I lost my best friend In my heart, a sunken hole At least now I won't have to pretend "You just sleep in now, Bud."

My Bud, Meech
"You gon'a sleep all mornin', Bud?" We get up for the day Breakfast first, or else we're both wild animals He walked over in such a way An older version of my pal An abandoned soul A loyal, trusting friend He makes me whole He's a tired old ten Was always horrible with words Got homesick a lot, too Always had to be with Ma and Pa For me, there's nothing he wouldn't do "You stop to smell the roses, Bud?" I love long walks On the beach A flaky line, but it mocks I want to teach you about Meech He lays down Breathless, aching body But oh man that was a great walk His smile doesn't dare frown A lonely soul Last night I lost my best friend In my heart, a sunken hole At least now I won't have to pretend "You just sleep in now, Bud."
