James Taylor – My Best Friend Plank lyrics

I'm never born when I'm with you
We're pals, we're buddies through and through
I wish I knew what to buy for you on your birthday

A friendship goes against the grain
I've seen u swell up in the rain
I saw you didn't see your pain
Was it termites?

It's never hard to talk to you
though you stop me with your silence
I feel so naughty hiding here
for your happy face is guidance

My Best Freind Plank
My Best Friend Plank
My Best Friend Plank

Sitting there so silently
What could you be thinking
You're not saying I won't ask
Is that sea lent that youre drinking?

Man you're hammer-nailed your pal
Al Gores wife's name is Tipper
I knew wed be best friends for life
When I save you from that chipper

My Best Friend Plank
My Best Friend Plank
My Best Friend Plank

Oooh Plank count the rings, count the rings
Oooh Plank count the rings, count the rings

I walk on the seven seas
but sawdust always makes me wheeze
I met your mom and dad in the trees
But please don't get Dutch elm disease

My Best Friend Plank
My Best Friend Plank
My Best Friend Plank
My Best Friend Plank
