Once upon a time I had a real good friend
At least, that's what I thought
But it wasn't long till my good friend
And the man I loved got caught
So who in the world is fooling who?
Let's not kid ourself
We can count our friends on one hand
And have five fingers left
Friends are few and far between
Believe me, I should know
And a real good way of finding out
Is to let no money show
So who in the world is fooling who?
Let's not kid ourself
We can count our friends on one hand
And have five fingers left
When you're down and out and you need a friend
You'll find thеy're hard to find
And when you do, don't turn your back
Causе your friend will rob you blind
So who in the world is fooling who?
Let's not kid ourself
We can count our friends on one hand
And have five fingers left
We all know what our enemies will do
It's our friends we've got to watch
Keep your eyes wide open and your big mouth shut
And you'll find out a lot
So who in the world is fooling who?
Let's not kid ourself
We can count our friends on one hand
And have five fingers left
So who in the world is fooling who?
Let's not kid ourself
We can count our friends on one hand
And have five fingers left
