[Verse 1]
I recall when you once said, "There's truth in both of us
And all that lies ahead"
I take it your tongue, it just got twisted, or maybe it got tired
Or maybe your memory waved goodbye
[Pre-Chorus]
When your so-called friends forget your name
When your so-called friends, they ain't the same
When your so-called friends, they've lost their way
[Chorus]
And they ain't what they was just the other day, hey
Shoulda listened to what my folks, they had to say
Just like a dog that's turned on you
Ain't it funny what the color green will make some people do?
[Verse 2]
How I couldn't see thru your thin disguise
Lord only knows, in the end, such a fool was I
Happy-go-lucky that's what I was, and what I hope to be
But I feel that I've lost that side of me
[Pre-Chorus]
When your so-called friends forget your name
When your so-called friends they ain't the same
When your so-called friends they've lost their way
[Chorus]
And they ain't what they was just the other day, hey
Shoulda listened to what my folks, they had to say
Just like a dog that's turned on you
Ain't it funny what the color green will make some people do?
