when you got a good friend

Robert Johnson

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
and I can't see no reason why
Everytime I think about it
I just wring my hands and cry
Wonder could I bear appologize
or would she sympathize with me
Mmmmmmmmmmm mmmmm mmmmmmmm
would she sympathize with me
She's a brownskin woman
just as sweet as a girlfriend can be
Mmmmm mmmmm
babe, I may be right ay wrong
Babe its your opinion
oh I may be right ay wrong
Watch your close friend baby
then your enimies can 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
