[Intro]
Yeah, this is the first song I ever wrote
It's called "Marlboro Man"
Uh, it's for an old friend of mine

[Verse 1]
Hands made of steel
And a heart made of gold
If you don't know, then I'll tell you so
He works most his life, but he partied all night
Whisky by the gallon and a cigarette light
Tough young hands and a young ol' man
Wilder than hell and crazy as sin

[Chorus]
But the Marlboro man was a good friend of mine
And I'd give anything to go back in time
To listen to his stories and take some advice
They say legends, they never die

[Verse 2]
Smart as the lucks and he never gave a fuck
About all your feelings
And he called it like it was
Good friend of mine, and I'll never forget
How he used to sit and talk cowboy-life

[Chorus]
But the Marlboro man was a good friend of mine
And I'd give anything to go back in time
To listen to his stories and take some advice
They say legends, they never die

[Bridge]
Whiskey and coke, Marlboro smoke
Fill my memory when I think of you

[Chorus]
But the Marlboro man was a good friend of mine
And if anybody, I thought he could be tight
Since you're not here, I'll always keep in mind
They say the legends, they never die
