Friend of Mine Lyrics by Kelly Price

Soul of a Woman

1998

[Intro]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh oh
Oh-whoa
[Chorus]
She was a friend of mine (Yeah-yeah)
She left with my man (Why, why, why?)
She lied (Yeah-yeah), cheated (Oh, lord), took all I had (She was, yeah)
She was a friend of mine (Ooh, ooh-ooh)
She used what she knew (I don't know why)
She lied (Yeah), cheated (Ooh-oh), and left me confused
[Verse 1]
I feel so lost
Don't know why this has happened to me, ooh
My closest friend
I never would have thought it could be
You were someone
Someone I really thought I could trust
But my man, you laid, and I'm betrayed
[Chorus]
She was a friend of mine (Yeah-yeah, hey)
She left with my man (No, you lied)
She lied (And cheated), cheated (Oh-oh), took all I had (You were my friend)
She was a friend of mine (Yeah, yeah-yeah, mm-mm)
She used what she knew (Oh-oh)
She lied (You lied), cheated (Yes, you did), and left me confused
[Verse 2]
Thicker than blood
Wherever there was me, there was you, ooh
My all was your all
But that wasn't enough for you
You had to see
And try to walk a mile in my shoes
In my head, in my bed
Betrayed by my best friend
[Chorus]
She was a friend of mine (Oh, yeah-yeah)
She left with my man (Oh-ooh)
She lied (You lied), cheated (You cheated), took all I had (Yeah-yeah, oh-ooh)
She was a friend of mine (My closest friend)
She used what she knew (Yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah)
She lied (You lied), cheated (And cheated), and left me confused (And oh, I wanna know why)
[Bridge]
(Why?)
You were my friend (Why?)
I gave you all I had (Why?)
Everything, everything that you'd want (Why?)
Oh-oh-ooh-whoa-oh-oh-whoa (Why?)
You were my friend (Why?)
Oh, my sister (Why?)
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah (Why?)
[Chorus]
She was a friend of mine (Oh, you were, you were, you were)
She left with my man (How could you do this to me?)
She lied (Yeah-yeah), cheated (Yeah-yeah-yeah), took all I had (You were)
She was a friend of mine (My best friend, yeah-yeah yeah)
She used what she knew (And everything that you needed)
She lied (I gave you), cheated (Everything), and left me confused (Oh-whoa)
She was a friend of mine (Yeah-yeah)
She left with my man (You left me alone)
She lied (You lied), cheated (You cheated, yeah), took all I had (Every little thing I had)
She was a friend of mine (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
She used what she knew (You used all you knew)
She lied (You liar), cheated (And you're a cheater), and left me confused (You, whoa)
She was a friend of mine (How could you do it, how could you do it?)
She left with my man (Yeah-yeah-yeah yeah)
She lied (You're a liar), cheated (And you're a cheater), took all I had (Hey-hey-hey yeah)
She was a friend of mine (You were my friend, yeah-yeah yeah)
[Outro]
Oh-oh, you're a liar
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh
