(Roy Orbison/Bill Dees)
If I my friend, can't tell you
When you, my friend, are wrong
Not to do what you want to
Just because it's wrong
Well, then, my friend, in passing
We've been friends too long
And I, my friend, must tell you
Leave that woman alone
Your little girls might not understand
And you know the baby would cry
And what would you do if their mommy knew and she told you goodbye
Let it end, my friend, say it's over
And thank the stars above
That you've got a home to go to
And a sweet, sweet, woman to love
I must say, my friend, if you stay my friend
Leave that woman alone
Leave that woman alone
