Deceitful Friend Blues
Lyricist:Hudson Wittaker
When this world is so crooked I just don't know what to do When this world is so crooked I just don't know what to do
And if you try to hold up yo' hands Everybody will be down on you
I got some friends who are deceitful And they don't mean me no good I got some friends who are deceitful And they don't mean me no good
Well, they would set a fire to me And burn me up if they could
Well, I don't bother, nobody Wonder why they pick at poor me? I don't bother, nobody Wonder why they pick at poor me? Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Look like they'd rather see my body Drifting in the deep blue sea
They have ate at my table Even slept in my bed They have ate at my table, woo They have even slept in my bed
And they were jealous and deceitful Wishin' that I was dead
So I ain't-a callin' no names So I have no blame to bear So I ain't-a callin' no names So I have no blame to bear
But I know 'em when I see 'em You can bet your life on that
