When You Got a Good Friend

When you gotta good friend

Let her stay right by your side

When you gotta good friend

Let her stay right by your side

Give all your spare time to her

And treat her right

I'm as true to my baby

And I can't see no reason why

Lord, man, I can't see no reason why

Every time I think about it

I hang my head and cry

Lord, I may be right or wrong

Hey and I may be right or wrong

Watch your close friends, baby

Enemies can't do you no wrong

There ain't but one thing, baby

That makes me drink

Say that you don't love me, Lord

I begin to think

Gotta good friend

Let her stay right by your side

God, give her all your spare time

Love and treat her right

Lord, Lord, down at the riverside

Go on, go on down at the riverside

No, you won't be my old lady

Man, 'til I get satisfied

You know I may be right or wrong

Little girl, I may be right or wrong

Watch your close friends, baby

And your enemies can't do you no harm
