I recall when you once said

"There's truth in both of us

And all that lies ahead."

I take it your tongue,

It just got twisted,

Or maybe it got tired,

Or maybe your memory waved goodbye.



When your so-called friends forget your name

When your so-called friends, they aint the same

When your so-called friends, they've lost thier way

And they aint what they was just the other day, hey

Shoulda listened to what my folks, they had to say

Just like a dog thats turned on you,

Ain't it funny what the color green will make some people do?



How I couldn't see thru your thin disguise,

Lord only knows, and such a fool was I

Happy-go-lucky thats what I was, and what I hope to be

But I feel that I've lost that side of me



When your so-called friends forget your name

When your so-called friends they aint the same

When your so-called friends they've lost thier way

And they aint what they was just the other day, hey

Shoulda listened to what my folks, they had to say

Just like a dog thats turned on you,

Ain't it funny what the color green will make some people do?
