Sam, You’re Just a Rat Lyrics by Lonnie Johnson

0

Sam, you say you're my friend, but your ways I just don't like
Sam, you say you're my friend, but your ways I just don't like
Soon as I leave my home, you're tryin' to bite me in my back
Now Sam you're not my friend, and my home you better stop hangin' 'round
Sam you're not my friend, and my home you better stop hangin' 'round
'Cause I paid for your coffin, and I mean that you're graveyard bound
Sam, if you want a woman go get one, and let my wife alone
Sam, if you want a woman go get one, and let my wife alone
'Cause if I would catch you with my wife, you're hell bound sure as I'm born
Sam, a real man can't live happy, for no good man like you
Sam, a real man can't live happy, for no good man like you
You're tryin' to wreck my family, and some other man's family too
Sam, I thought you was my friend, I thought you just was swell
Sam, I thought you was my friend, I thought you was just too swell
Sam I wanna give you a vacation, that's a round-trip ticket to hell
