False Friend Blues Songtext
von Ruth Brown

Just when I thought everything was good
Friend a case I misunderstood
Thought that we had mutual respect
Now I see the thanks that we get
So be careful who you chose as your friends
For they might let u down in the end
Just when I thought a real good friend I found
They pick you up to let you down

Dem let u down down down
They let you down down down down
Dem let u down down down
Down down down down down


So my son always care in mind
A faithful friend is hardest thing to find
It is better an open enemy
A false friend is hardest thing to see
Cause when times are good well are friends are plenty
In times of trouble when not one in twenty
Just when I thought a real good friend I found
They pick you up to let you down

We were fiends, we were fiends
Real good fiends, we were fiends
We were fiends, we were fiends and I remember when...

Just when I thought everything was good
My friend a case I misunderstood
Thought that we had love and respect
But now I see the thanks that we get
So i′m careful who I chose as my friends
For they might let me down in the end
Just a thought, when I thought, when I thought

Dem let u down down down
Dem let u down down down
Dem let u down down down
Down down down down down

They let u down down down
Dem let u down down down
Dem let u down down down
Down down down down down


We were fiends, we were fiends
Real good fiends, real good fiends
We were fiends, we were fiends
And I remember when we were good friends, real good friends
