♪♫ You say it was this morning when you last saw your good friend

Lyin' on the pavement with a misery on his brain

Stoned on some new potion he found upon the wall

Of some unholy bathroom in some ungodly hall

He only had a dollar to live on 'til next Monday

But he spent it on some comfort for his mind

Did you say you think he's blind?

Someone should call his parents, a sister or a brother

And they'll come to take him back home on a bus

But he'll always be a problem to his poor and puzzled mother

Yeah he'll always be another one of us

He said he wanted Heaven but prayin' was too slow

So he bought a one way ticket on an airline made of snow

Did you say you saw your good friend flyin' low?

Flyin' low

Dyin' slow ♪♫

graybeard1952, I love this song and the Pusher as well. However I love John Kay. Steppenwolf was a great group behind him. I did not know Hoyt Axton wrote those two songs. I thought John wrote it all. shows how much research I have done. I wonder dear are you still around??? Comment to me if you are, Dusty the 2nd.

A Great But Meloncholy Song...   Remember ALL, No One Is promised a long full life, Be Closer to the Ones Close to You, bcz Its NOT here today Gone tomorrow. Its Here Now this second then Gone The next. & After any one is Gone Alpologies & "I Love You"s" Don't Make it to Their Beatings Hearts/Minds

I have been a lucky man to not have more friends die on me from the likes of drugs- not that we didn't do our share- 1974 grad
