999 is the nickname we gave him.
Often in an ambulance would he be in.
He is fond of drinking and a victim of drink.
To really stop, he'd need to stop and think.
 
From England he came from some time ago.
Spent some time homeless, a few months or so.
He's a good friend and a good man to chat.
Always dressed in black. He's no copycat.
 
He likes to walk and go out to fish.
Spagbol is his favourite dish.
He lives with Simon supported by Anne.
He's not a bad one. He's a good man.
 
One of these days he'll give up the drink.
He needs to take time and stop and think.
If he continues to drink, he's destined to die.
And drink will be the only reason why.
 
All he needs to do is give sobriety a try.
A better life is the best reason why.
He should be able to do it as others have done.
He wont be alone or the only one.
 
He's a good friend of mine. I've good time for John.
John is a good friend that I can depend on.
I pray for him daily and wish him the best.
He's a good man and one of the best.
