The Color Green Lyrics

I recall when you once said,
"There's a truth in both of us
And all that lies ahead."
I take it your tongue
It just got twisted
Or maybe it got tired
Or maybe your memory waved goodbye

When your so called friends forget your name
When your so called friends, they ain't the same
When your so called friends, they've lost their way
And they ain't what they was just the other day, hey
Should've listened to what my folks, they had to say
Just like a dog that's turned on you
Ain't it funny what the colour green will make some people do?

How I couldn't see through your thin disguise
Lord only knows and such a fool was I
Happy go lucky, that's what I was and what I hope to be
But I feel that I've lost that side of me

When your so called friends forget your name
When your so called friends, they ain't the same
When your so called friends, they've lost their way
And they ain't what they was just the other day, hey
Should've listened to what my folks, they had to say
Just like a dog that's turned on you
Ain't it funny what the colour green will make some people do?
