[Chorus]
Laugh with me, buddy, jest with me, buddy
Don't let her get the best of me, buddy
Don't ever let me start feeling lonely

[Verse 1]
If I ever needed you, buddy
You know now I really do, buddy
Don't ever let me start feeling lonely

[Verse 2]
I cry at the least, little thing, buddy
And I'll die if you mention her name, buddy

[Chorus]
Talk to me, buddy, stay with me, buddy
Let's don't let her get away with it, buddy
Don't ever let me start feeling lonely

[Verse 3]
Let's talk about things as they were, buddy
Before I got mixed up with her, buddy

[Chorus]
Laugh with me, buddy, jest with me, buddy
Let's don't let her get the best of me, buddy
Don't ever let me start feeling lonely
