You Been A Good Friend To Me

from At Least There Will Be Love by Sam Steffen

/

lyrics

You been a poor wife to your husband, you been a bad mother to your child
You ain’t been much to speak of to your folks in some long while
You been something of a let-down to your whole family
Aw, but you know you been a good friend to me

You been bad news to your landlord ever since you signed that lease
The only visitors you get in here are either junkies or police
You been wanted for a while now, everyone’s your enemy
Aw, but you know you been a good friend to me

You been a disgrace to your people, you’ve exhibited no pride
When the spies came you went to them and you invited them inside
You’d be called a traitor back in your home country
Aw, but you know you been a good friend to me

Everybody says you’re crazy, when you look they all turn around
Nobody seems to like you much you’re just too hard to be around
That’s the same way that people talk when they’re talkin about me
Aw, but you know you been a good friend to me
