Old Friend
Allman Brothers Band

You know hard time is just an old friend, just an old friend to me

I say hard time is just an old friend, just an old friend to me

Tell me now, old friend, when you gonna let me be?


Can't you feel a cold wind howlin' down, blowin' my song

Can't you feel a cold wind howlin' down, blowin' my song

Well, I ain't an old man, but you know my time ain't long


Gonna be a hard rain - you can hear it in the distance, sounds so near

Gonna be a hard rain - you can hear it in the distance, sounds so near

People, when the rain comes, it's gonna wash us all away from here


Mean old woman, people won't you tell me where can she be

Mean old woman, people won't you tell me where can she be

She's the only woman that ever meant a damn to me


You know hard time is just an old friend, just an old friend to me

I say hard time is just an old friend, just an old friend to me

Tell me now, old friend, when you gonna let me be?

Tell me now, old friend, when you gonna let me be?

Tell me now, old friend, when you gonna let this poor man be?
