5 Chinese Brothers - My Friend

Album:

(Tom Meltzer)

for Neil Young

Found a dirt road beneath my feet
Must have wandered off the main street
When I was looking up instead of looking down
I was enjoying the city sights
Wanted to compare them with the northern lights
I guess that's how I wound up way outside of town
Now I'm wondering if I should go back
Or search around for an unbeaten track
I wish that you were here to show me how


Oh my friend, oh my friend
I'm wondering what you would do now


'Cause I wasted my good looks
Oh television and beer
And cynical heroes with nothing to say
Now I'm living in my second stage
Between my youth and my middle age
Hope when it's over I don't feel the same way
Just because you've left the bad behind
Doesn't guarantee what you'll find
So I'm thinking of you to make me strong


Oh my friend, oh my friend
Am I going where I belong


150 rum by the double shot
Warmed up in an aluminum pot
I'm trading my tomorrows for today
Life's a gamble when you don't toe the line
I want to let it ride every time
Winning or losing, learning something along the way
If this song sounds like a fan letter
It's 'cause you just keep getting better
I want to thank you for your high and lonesome sound


Oh my friend, oh my friend
Thank God there's still good friends around

  • MUDVAYNE SLAM RADIO WITH THEIR FASTEST-RISING SINGLE YET
    "DO WHAT YOU DO" IS #1 MOST ADDED AT ACTIVE ROCK AND #2 MOST ADDED AT MODERN ROCK BAND OPENS UP TICKET SALES AT ALL OUTLETS (Monday, September 29) AND PARTNERS WITH BESTBUY TO ADD A FREE LIVE WEBCAST OF THEIR CONCERT TO FAN CLUB MEMBERS MUDVAYNE--one of the most creative and distinctive bands in the aggressive music world with sales exceeding 5 million units worldwide--have slammed onto the charts with "Do What You Do," the fastest-rising single of their career. Garnering over 75 radio adds out of the box--in the first 36 hours the track became available this week--the song is #1 most added at the Active Rock chart and #2 most added at Modern Rock.  As the band prepare to release THE NEW GAME--their first studio album in three years, due out November 18 via Epic Records--the band is working even harder to get the best possible deal directly to their fans in light of the tough economy by opening up ticket sales of their upcoming tour to all outlets and partnering with Best Buy to add a free live web cast of their concert to fan club members who pre-order the album at bestbuy.com/mudvayne.  "We want fans that cannot afford to see us live or that live outside our tour markets to still get the benefits of our ‘The Album Is The TicketTM' program," says singer Chad Gray, "and by adding the live webcast and releasing ticket sales to the general public, we are now able to offer fans even more value and options for their money in this rough financial time." The concert webcast will be from one of the tour stops (TBA) on the first leg of "The New Game Tour 2008."  Meanwhile, all tickets will be released at all outlets by Monday, September 29th. All current ‘The Album Is The Ticket' members are entitled to a free meet & greet at their selected show. The current dates for "The New Game Tour 2008" are as follows.  Note: All dates subject to change.
