Lyrics
After the party nobody came
I bought the tickets
They cancelled the game
I give you my picture
It didn’t fit your frame
Be my friend tonight

Chorus:
Be my friend tonight
Be my friend tonight
I’ll sleep on the couch
You can leave on the light
I won’t do nothing wrong
Unless you say it’s right.
Be my friend tonight

Now you bring the glasses
I’ll bring the wine
I’ll rub your shoulders
Like they were mine
‘Til it’s passing time
Come on be my friend tonight

Chorus:

I’ll watch my manners
My P’s and Q’s
I won’t give you nothing
That you can’t use
I’ll whip out that old guitar
Sing you the blues
Come on honey
Be my friend tonight.

Chorus
