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
