T E Yates A Friend In Need Lyrics
A Friend In Need by T.E. Yates
I gave you so much money when you said you were in need
You came to me all puppy eyed and desperate
I watched you spend it chasing women, buying them champagne
While I'm fighting the breadline, can't afford to eat
Where are all my friends when I need them?
Where are all these people I hold dear?
Make me, don't break me again
I gave you a bed when you had no place to stay
You came to me all puppy eyed and desperate
Now you have a house on the other side of town
I'm outside, it's cold and you won't let me in
Where are all my friends when I need them?
Where are all these people I hold dear?
Make me, don't break me again
I gave you everything I could
When I had nothing, my friend
And now that the table has turned
You give me nothing
You give me
You give me nothing at all
You came to me all puppy eyed and desperate
I watched you spend it chasing women, buying them champagne
While I'm fighting the breadline, can't afford to eat
Where are all my friends when I need them?
Where are all these people I hold dear?
Make me, don't break me again
I gave you a bed when you had no place to stay
You came to me all puppy eyed and desperate
Now you have a house on the other side of town
I'm outside, it's cold and you won't let me in
Where are all my friends when I need them?
Where are all these people I hold dear?
Make me, don't break me again
I gave you everything I could
When I had nothing, my friend
And now that the table has turned
You give me nothing
You give me
You give me nothing at all
