Additional lyrics:
2.I know this girl she's barely alive
She's all haggard, she's only twenty-five
She said she's never had a friend before
I said: "Hey girl, I'll be your friend, but who's keeping score?"
3.I saw this other little girl on the phone
Her mother comforts her from far from home
The little girl was very hesitant
Her best friend lies dead on the pavement
4.I always end up back on the hill
Lookin' down at the landfill
I always go there when I can
My friend Marty said: "Tim, you're a lucky man"
--Mat
