Everyone's Friend

By Henry Lawson

Nobody's enemy save his own, (What shall it be in the end?), Still by the nick-name he is known, Everyones Friend. Nobodys Enemy stands alone While he has money to lend, Nobodys Enemy holds his own, Everyones Friend Nobodys Enemy down and out, Game to the end, And he mostly dies with no one about, Everyones Friend.
