I Had Friends
 
I had friends when the address was 902
I had friends when it wasn't rent that was due
 
I had friends when the parties rocked my place
I had friends when roaches was west that way
 
I had friends when health was a hundred percent
I had friends paying mortgage and not low rent
 
I had friends when I juggled eight red balls
I had friends who chirpped I would never fall
 
I had friends laughing hearty and singing with me
I had friends way up in this society
 
I had friends calling me on everyday
I had friends calling me with nothing to say
 
Loneliness but the pigeons and whew they stink
Water in my eyes and acid round' the sink
 
Friends not calling; no fancy social fares
Ooh..Ooh…I can't wait to get out of here
I had friends…

Carol, i love this piece; it is quite inspiring and one can learn a lot in it.
I had friends when health was a hundred percent
I had friends paying mortgage and not low rent
It is beautiful.
