Just A Friend Songtext
von Tally Hall

Have you ever met a girl that you tried to date
But a year to make love she wanted you to wait?
Well, let me tell you a story of my situation
I was talking to this girl from the US nation

The way that I met her was on tour at a concert
She had long hair and a short miniskirt
I just got onstage, drippin′, pourin' with sweat
I was walkin′ through the crowd, and guess who I met?

I whispered in her ear, "Come to the picture booth
So I can ask you some questions
See if you are a hundred proof"
I asked her her name, she said blah-blah-blah
She had 9/10 pants (and a very big bra)


I took a couple of flicks and she was enthused
I said, "How do you like the show?"
She said, "I was very amused"
I started throwin' bass
She started throwin' back mid-range
But when I sprung the question
She acted kind of strange

Then when I asked, "Do ya have a man?"
She tried to pretend
She said, "No I don′t, I only have a friend"

Come on!
Oh, baby
You, you got what I need
But you say he′s just a friend
But you say he's just a friend, oh baby
You, you got what I need
But you say he′s just a friend
But you say he's just a friend

So I took blah-blah′s word for it at this time
I thought havin' a friend couldn′t be no crime
'Cause I got friends, and that's a fact
Like Agnes, Agatha, Germaine, and Jacq

Forget about that, let′s go into the story
About a girl named blah-blah-blah that adored me
So we started talkin, getttin familiar
Spendin′ a lot of time so we can build up


A relationship or some undderstanding
How it's gonna be in the future we was plannin
Everything sounded so dandy and sweet
I had no idea I was in for a treat

After this was established, everything was cool
The tour was over and she went back to school
I called every day to see how she was doin′
Everytime that I called it seemed like somethin' was brewin′

I called her on my dime, picked up, and then I called again
I said, "Yo, who was that?"
"Oh, he's just a friend"

Oh no!
Oh baby You, you got what I need
But you say he′s just a friend
But you say he's just a friend, oh baby
You, you got what I need
But you say he's just a friend
But you say he′s just a friend

Damn girl, what you want from me?
I′ll give you anything
Want any kind of subscription to a magazine?
Give you a potato
A mask of some sort
I love you

So I came to her college on a surprise visit
To see my girl that was so exquisite
It was a school day, I knew she was there
The first semester of the school year

I went to a gate to ask where was her dorm
This guy made me fill out a visitor's form
So I did, and I was on my way
To see my baby girl, I was happy to say

I rolled up to her dormitory
Yo, could you tell me where is door three?
He told me where it was, and for the moment
I didn′t know that I was in for such an event

I went to her room, I opened the door
Oh, snap! Guess what I saw?
A fella tongue-kissin my girl in the mouth
I was so in shock my heart went down south

Please listen to the message that I send
Don't ever talk to a girl
Who says she just has a friend

Oh baby, you, you got what I need-doowah
But you say he′s just a friend
But you say he's just a friend, oh baby
You, you got what I need
But you say he′s just a friend
But you say he's just a friend
Oh baby, you
Girl
