Best Friends lyrics

George Jones & Leona Williams

(Leona)
I know you`ve been down just as far as a good man can go.
And the hurtin`s come easy but the healin`s been slow.
But you`re on your way to recovery and you`re not alone.
`Cause Nancy sure loves you and she`s gonna take care of ol` Jones.

Chorus: (Both)
So cry on my shoulder and let`s both get over the bad.
Let`s chalk it up to just one more bad memory we have.
Friendship`s the one thing that keeps love from driving us mad.
So cry on my shoulder, we`re the best friends that we ever had.

(George)
I heard you left Haggard, I knew by the words in his song.
And you`re wondering if you`re right sittin` at home all alone.
But I know you still love him `cause you`re always there when he calls.
And always remember that you`re his favorite memory of all.

Chorus: (Both)
So cry on my shoulder and let`s both get over the bad.
Let`s chalk it up to just one more bad memory we have.
Friendship`s the one thing that keeps love from driving us mad.
So cry on my shoulder, we`re the best friends that we ever had...
