When you got a good friend, that will stay right by your side
When you got a good friend, that will stay right by your side
Give her all of your spare time, love and treat her right
I mistreated my baby, and I can't see no reason why
I mistreated my baby, but I can't see no reason why
Anytime I think about it, I just wring my hands and cry
Wonder, could I bear apologize, or would she sympathize with me?
Would she sympathize with me?
She's a brownskin woman, just as sweet as a girlfriend can be
Baby, I may be right or wrong
Baby, know your opinion, or I may be right or wrong
Watch your close friend, baby
Then your enemies can't do you no harm
When you got a good friend, that will stay right by your side
When you got a good friend, that will stay right by your side
Give her all of your spare time, love and treat her right
