歌词
Johnny lived next door to me, and Paul lived down the block
We'd meet each day at my house, sharp at six o'clock
We'd race our bikes to school, and Paul would always win
Johnny said, "That's 'cause we're nine, and Paul had just turned ten"
First day of high school, on my way to my first class
Three football players said they wouldn't let me pass
I set my books down, and I rolled up my sleeves
And then I noticed there were two boys next to me
It was me and John and Paul
The best friends you ever saw
All for one and one for all
It was me and John and Paul
I wonder why they call it graduation day
It's more like a funeral for youth that's passed away
Paul said he's leaving for the army in two weeks
Johnny said, "Let's go to town and make some memories"
It was me and John and Paul
The best friends you ever saw
All for one and one for all
It was me and John and Paul
Years later, I heard Paul came back from the Gulf War
I flew up to Tennessee to visit him once more
It didn't shock me none to hear that he'd been brave
He'd lost his own life, but another one was saved
I waited by a tree 'til everyone had left
And I went up and said a prayer where my pal slept
And then I heard a voice I hadn't heard in years
I didn't need to turn around, I knew just who was there
It was me and John and Paul
The best friends you ever saw
All for one and one for all
It was me and John and Paul
It was me and John and Paul
The best friends you ever saw
All for one and one for all
It was me and John and Paul
