  • Songwriters: J (arr) Mcguinn, Traditional

He was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
His killin' had no purpose
No reason, or rhyme
He was a friend of mine

He was in Dallas Town
He was in Dallas Town
Form a sixth floor window
A gunner shot him down
He died in Dallas Town

He never knew my name
He never knew my name
Though I never met him
I knew him just the same
Oh, he was a friend of mine

Leader of a nation
For such a precious talent
He was a friend of mine
