There's a friend of mine Who lives up town Ain't nothin' much Can bring him down Standing tall And shorty is his name Shorty likes to play guitar Shorty likes to drive his car But shorty knows You can't take it when you go Shorty's smilin' Cause he knows just what to do Shorty's stylin' He says you better get that thing in tune Shorty knows about true love Shorty's saved by jesus' blood Shorty ain't afraid To let you know Shorty says he likes this song He says, "play that one That's not too long" Shorty knows that time is short He stands so tall Down on his knees Jesus mercy set him free
