What did you call me when I was your fool?
To lovers and others; hearts true and untrue
And what did you think when you first took me home?
To hell with the graces; chew the meat from the bones
Go on then, make me your friend
Don't think that you won't be lied to
Hopping the border and playing both sides
Jumping the turnstiles and crossing the line
I ironed my shirt and I tied my own tie
I love all the trouble I'm sleeping beside
So go on then, make me your friend
Don't think that you won't be lied to
Go on, tell everybody
You woke up with everything gone
Years at the salvation army
Won't bring it back
Don't leave me stranded
Don't leave me hangin' on
Go on then, make me your friend
Don't think that you won't be lied to
