Jody

Jody was a friend of mine
Met him back in '89
He was a drummer
Who liked to walk from Brooklyn
Down into the city
Watching every girl go by

You know he did
You know he did

Jody wore his clothes real tight
Rude T-shirts and leather
Jody had a camera’s eye
He liked taking pictures
Of girls you’d never see in Vogue
'Cause he believed
All women were a sight to behold

You know he did

We talked about movies and Cuddles Sakall
Hours on the phone about nothing at all
He liked to call me kid
I liked it when he did

Jody was a friend
Jody was a friend of mine
Jody was a friend
Jody was a friend of mine
Jody was a friend
Jody was a friend of mine
Jody was a friend
Jody was a friend of mine

I miss him so
I miss him so

Jody said he had a brother
Who wrote a song for Peggy Lee
Jody moved down south to Tallapoosa
Back in 2003
And I never saw his face again on Greene Street
Not a trace again
Jody didn’t like everybody
But I'm glad he liked me

We talked about movies and Cuddles Sakall
Hours on the phone about nothing at all
He liked to call me kid
I liked it when he did

Jody was a friend
Jody was a friend of mine
Jody was a friend
Jody was a friend of mine
Jody was a friend
Jody was a friend of mine
Jody was a friend
Jody was a friend of mine
