Some Thymes It Your Friends

NEVER BLAME THE MAN
WHEN HE HAS YOUR BEST
INTEREST IN MIND
WHEN HE ACTS NICE
A TREATS YOU KIND
WHEN YOUR FRIENDS 
SPEAK ILL OF HIM
TO CAUSE YOU TO
DISAGREE
SO THAT ONE DAY"GIRL"
YOU'LL OPEN YOUR EYES 
AND SEE
THEY'LL ARRANGE WAYS TO
CAUSE
AND MAKE THINGS GO WRONG
FOR YOU AND HIM
HE'S THE ONE TO
BLAME
HE SUPPOSED TO BE THE MAN
BUT THAT IS A PRECURSOR
TO WHAT YOU KNOW HE THINKS
SOMETHING AINT RIGHT
AND YOU KNOW THAT AINT REAL
WHEN HE SMOOTH HER OVER
THEY'LL SEND IN
SOMEONE HIS WAY
TO BREAK-UP THIS SHAM
AND SEND THIS BUSTA ON HIS WAY
DAYS GOES BY" GIRL GUESS WHO
CALLED, CRYING AND BALLIN
ASKING SLAP-JAWED
"OLE BOY, GIRL"
WANTING TO HOOK UP AGAIN
I TOLD HIM I GOT A MAN
I CAN'T LET YOU BACK IN
THEY GOT MARRIED THROUGH
AND BEEN HAPPY EVER SINCE
THEY GOT RID OF THOSE FRIENDS
THOSE TROUBLE-MAKING TRICKS
