作词 : Perkins 作曲 : Perkins On the Isle of Montserrat Though I never shall forget Just a country boy, a guitar and a song You invited me in And you treated me like kin And you've given me a reason to go on My old friend, Thanks for inviting me in My old friend, May this goodbye never mean the end If we never meet again this side of life In a little while, over yonder, Where it's peace and quiet My old friend, Won't you think about me every now and then If I told you how I feel Oh, it wouldn't sound so real 'Cause emotions, they are just now settin' in But it sure is great to know That wherever we may go We can always be the best of friends My old friend, Thanks for inviting me in My old friend, My old friend, And if we never meet again this side of life In a little while, over yonder, Where it's peace and quiet My old friend, Won't you think about me every now and then And I'll think about you, My old friend Yeah...My old friend
