Just Be a Friend

Just Be A Friend Arranged By – Kenton Nix, Van Gibbs Written-By – Henry Batts, Kenton Nix Background: Just be a friend Just be a friend The people that we see on the street, They smile and don't even speak And the only thing that makes it worse Is neither one wants to speak first You call it being strong I'm sorry but it's all wrong And oh it's such a sin Because the problems no deeper than skin Background: Just be a friend Just be a friend Got to get ourselves together Now, cause now's the time to start Can't do as much living now Cause now we've got to do our part Not love for just man and wife But love for all of life A pleasant smile you'll find Means the same for all mankind And now we're hung up in color And we should be trying to love one another We're thinking about white and black Lord knows that ain't where it'a at We're thinking about yellow and red The black is only in your head You say you're a strong man Let me see you shake his hand Background: Just be a friend Just be a friend How that all my hate is gone I feel that I can carry on The feeling I get from the song It picks me up and makes me strong
