[verse 1]
benjamin rode out of montana on a palomino pony
told me he was all alone, he lost his family in ’49
benjamin took me to san diego, guess we caused quite a commotion
sellin’ pacific ocean water and callin’ it seaweed wine

[chorus]
i never had as good a friend as benjamin
he loved to travel
he’d been ever’ place i’d been and back again
that boy could unravel
stories that would make your eyes
big as blackberry pies, i’m tellin’ you
life could be fun for anyone
who had a good friend like bеnjamin
had a good friend like benjamin
[verse 2]
mе and ben thumbed a ride to alabama, spent the summer pickin’ cotton
now, it was so doggone hot, and we bought us a three-speed electric fan
then at night we’d drink a coca-cola, listen to the rain a-fallin’
hearin’ the bob white callin’ as though he’d know we’d understand

[chorus]
i never had as good a friend as benjamin
he loved to travel
he’d been ever’ place i’d been and back again
that boy could unravel
stories that would make your eyes
big as blackberry pies, i’m tellin’ you
life could be fun for anyone
who had a good friend like benjamin
had a good friend like benjamin

[verse 3]
ben and me spent some time in oklahoma livin’ on a reservation
workin’ at a service station, pumpin’ gas and passin’ time
we caught a train down to harlan county thinkin’ we were awful lucky
just to walk along a kentucky backroad without no reason nor rhyme

[chorus]
i never had as good a friend as benjamin
he loved to travel
he’d been ever’ place i’d been and back again
that boy could unravel
stories that would make your eyes
big as blackberry pies, i’m tellin’ you
life could be fun for anyone
who had a good friend like benjamin
had a good friend like benjamin
had a good friend like benjamin
