When You’ve Got a Good Friend Songtext
von Eric Clapton

When you got a good friend
That will stay right by your side
When you got a good friend
That will stay right by your side
Give her all of your spare time
Love and treat her right

I mistreated my baby, and I can′t see no reason why
I mistreated my baby, and I can't see no reason why
Any time I think about it, I just wring my hands and cry


Wonder, could I have apologized
Or would you sympathize with me?
Mmm, would she sympathize with me?
She′s a brown skin woman
Just as sweet as a girlfriend can be

Mmm, baby, I may be right or wrong
Baby, it's your opinion, well, I may be right or wrong
Watch your close friend, baby
Then your enemies can't do you no harm

When you got a good friend
That will stay right by your side
When you got a good friend
That will stay right by your side
On and around your spare time
Love and treat her right
