The Allman Brothers Band - Old Friend

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?
