Next to the Track Blues lyrics

Yeah, yeah, how about a drink? How about a toast to our friends? Not the friends you're gonna see every day, no Instead, we're gonna drink to the friends who had to go away I'll betcha know just who I mean The friends who had to depart The friends in our heart Can you see the blues in my boogie? Can you see the blood in my beer? Just hope you laugh at pain Help me smile away the tears
