A FRIEND OF MINE

A friend of mine told me That you were just no good And you never would be A friend of mine told me That the best thing to do Would be to set you free So I let you slip away (Slip away) And I just got the news today You're doing fine, oh, yeah With a friend of mine A friend of mine told me You would never amount to anything Yes, she did, y'all A friend of mine told me That heartache and trouble Is all you'd bring Like a fool I let you go (Let you go) And was it my surprise to know You're doing fine With a friend of mine You're doing fine With a friend of mine Uh, huh, you're doing fine With a friend of mine I'll never forget it I'll always regret it I should have kept the faith Until the end But this is the sad part You're still in my heart It didn't, didn't Have to be like that, no, no (No, no, no) If I had any sense I would have fought back (Though I loved you) I let you slip away (Slip away) And I just got the news today You're doing fine, oh, yeah You're doing fine, fine, fine They said you're doing fine With a friend of mine (A friend of mine told me) A friend of mine (A friend of mine told me) I never should have let you go (A friend of mine told me) Hey, Baby, I can't believe it (A friend of mine told me) She was always hanging around (A friend of mine told me) I didn't know why...
