My Friend – Lynn Anderson

If I, my friend, can tell you
When you, my friend, are wrong
Not to do what you want to
Just because it’s wrong
Well then, my friend, impassing
We’ve been friends too long
And I, my friend, must tell you
Leave that man alone

Your little girl might not understand
And you know your little baby would cry
And that would you do if their daddy knew
And he told you goodbye

Let it end, my friend, say it’s over
And thank the stars above
That you got a home to go on to
And a sweet sweet man to love
I must say, my friend, if you’re still my friend
Leave that man alone
Leave my man alone!
