C
Have you ever met a girl that you tried to date
Dm
But a year to make love she wanted you to wait
Let me tell ya a story of my situation
G
I was talking to this girl from the U.S. nation
C
The way that I met her was on tour at a concert
Dm
She had long hair and a short miniskirt
I just got onstage dripping, pouring with sweat
G
I was walking through the crowd and guess who I met
C
I whispered in her ear, come to the picture booth
Dm
So I can ask you some questions to see if you are a hundred proof
I asked her her name, she said blah-blah-blah
G
She had 9/10 pants and a very big bra
C
I took a couple of flicks and she was enthused
Dm
I said, how do you like the show?
She said, I was very amused
I started throwing bass, she started throwing back mid-range
G
But when I sprung the question, she acted kind of strange
C
Then when I asked, do ya have a man, she tried to pretend
Dm
She said, no I dont, I only have a friend
Come on, Im not even goin for it
G
This is what Im goin sing
C Dm
You, you got what I need but you say hes just a friend
G
And you say hes just a friend, oh baby
C Dm
You, you got what I need but you say hes just a friend
G
But you say hes just a friend, oh baby
C Dm
You, you got what I need but you say hes just a friend
G
But you say hes just a friend, oh baby
C
So I took blah-blahs word for it at this time
Dm
I thought just havin a friend couldnt be no crime
cause I have friends and thats a fact
G
Like Agnes, Agatha, Germaine, and Jack
C
Forget about that, lets go into the story
Dm
About a girl named blah-blah-blah that adored me
So we started talking, gettin' familiar
G
Spending a lot of time so we can build a
C
Relationship or some understanding
Dm
How its gonna be in the future we was planning
Everything sounded so dandy and sweet
G
I had no idea I was in for a treat
C
After this was established, everything was cool
Dm
The tour was over and she went back to school
I called every day to see how she was doin'
G
Everytime that I called her it seemed something was brewin'
C
I called her on my dime, picked up, and then I called again
Dm
I said, yo, who was that? oh, hes just a friend
Dont gimme that, dont even gimme that
G
Just bust this
C Dm
You, you got what I need but you say hes just a friend
G
And you say hes just a friend, oh baby
C Dm
You, you got what I need but you say hes just a friend
G
But you say hes just a friend, oh baby
C Dm
You, you got what I need but you say hes just a friend
G
But you say hes just a friend, oh baby
C
So I came to her college on a surprise visit
Dm
To see my girl that was so exquisite
It was a school day, I knew she was there
G
The first semester of the school year
C
I went to a gate to ask where was her dorm
Dm
This guy made me fill out a visitors form
He told me where it was and I was on my way
G
To see my baby doll, I was happy to say
C
I arrrived in front of the dormitory
Dm
Yo, could you tell me where is door three?
They showed me where it was for the moment
G
I didnt know I was in for such an event
C
So I came to her room and opened the door
Dm
Oh, snap! guess what I saw?
A fella tongue-kissin my girl in the mouth,
G
I was so in shock my heart went down south
C
So please listen to the message that I send
Dm
Dont ever talk to a girl who says she just has a friend
(End G C)
