Lyrics
Mama used to tell me, "friends not good for you, girl"
But I know I would learn the hard way
Smile inna yuh face, them a chat behind yuh back
Gwan like them a sheep but them a wolf inna pack
No make them build yuh weed with lizard tail and give yuh crack
If walls could a talk to you trust me you would a shock
Say them love you, don't fall for that
Man to man so unjust member that
Bob Marley done did sing that all around the world
Friends will sell you out fi two shillings and pearls
Mama used to tell me, "friends not good for you, girl"
But I know I would learn the hard way (bun a fake friend)
Mama used to beg me, "stay away from them girls"
But I know I would face it anyway (a hypocrite dem)
Backstabber could be sister or yuh brother
You fuck fi see a who would a pull di trigger
Live your life, everybody yah fi pree
Watch your friends more than your enemy
It no matter what they come and say
They don't wanna see you on your way
They pull you back 'cause they want you stay
Under the ground but a pray a day
Mama used to tell me, "friends not good for you, girl"
But I know I would learn the hard way (bun a fake friend)
Mama used to beg me, "stay away from them girls"
But I know I would face it anyway (a hypocrite dem)
Stay in my zone 'cause I'm good pon mi own
A nuh everybody fi know a weh yuh call home
When them call you them friend
You fi watch out fi them 'cause
Mama used to say, mama used to say
Mama used to tell me, "friends not good for you, girl"
But I know I would learn the hard way (bun a fake friend)
Mama used to beg me, "stay away from them girls"
But I know I would face it anyway (a hypocrite dem)
Mama used to tell me, "friends not good for you, girl"
But I know I would learn the hard way (bun a fake friend)
