Gather round, men
The ones I grew up with
My old friends
That I used to raise hell with
I've got a woman on my mind
You all had your turn to cry
And I was always standing by
Friends
Friends of mine
Stand by me
Cause it's my time
It's my time
It's my time
It's my time
It's my time to cry
Oh, oh
It's my time to cry
Ah, ah
It's my time to cry
Oh, yeah
It's my time
Gather round, girls
The ones I played house with
Come close, girls
I first kissed on the mouth with
I need your tender words so kind
You all had your misty eyes
And I helped you wiped them dry
Friends
Friends of mine
Stand by me
Cause it's my time
It's my time
It's my time
It's my time
It's my time to cry
Oh, oh
It's my time to cry
Ah, ah
It's my time to cry
Oh, yeah
It's my time
It's my time
It's my time
It's my time
It's my time to cry
Oh, oh
It's my time to cry
Ah, ah
It's my time to cry
Oh, yeah
It's my time
