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 Your Spare Time,

Love And Treat Her Right.



I Mistreated My Baby

And I Can't See No Reason Why.

I Mistreated My Baby

And I Can't See No Reason Why.

Any Time I Think About It

I Just Wring My Hands And Cry.



Wonder Could I Ever Apologize

Or Would She Sympathize With Me?

Would She Sympathize With Me?

She's A Brown-skin Woman,

Just As Sweet As A Girlfriend Can Be.



Babe, I May Be Right Or Wrong.

Babe, It's Your Opinion,

Well, 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 Your Spare Time,

Love And Treat Her Right.
