girlfriend lyrics

My sister
Been through it all no one could dis her
Or it was only just how we roll
Swore we'd be that way
'Till we were gray and old

Then he came
I fell in love And everything changed
A perfect picture put in a frame
You saw a difference
Said that things won't be the same

Chorus:
Ohhhhh, girlfriend
I thought you said
You were my best friend
So why you
Tellin' all my business
Thought we were better
But you showed me where to stand
Girlfriend
I thought you said
You were my best friend
So what you tellin'
To my boyfriend
Thought you were better
Than to fight over a man

Time passed
Feelings are bubbling like a wine glass
My girl won't call me
'Cause of my man said we can't hang
'Cause I checked out of the game

But to fix that
She went and pulled some tricks out of the hat
And tried to tell him
How I did act whenever we'd go hanging
Out back in the day

Bridge:
Oh, I thought you'd be happy for me
Instead you're spitting venom
Bein' salty, oh yeah
How could you put
My business in the streets
I found out what they meant
By your friend could be
Your worst enemy

Chorus:
Ohhhhh, girlfriend
I thought you said
You were my best friend
So why you
Tellin' all my business
Thought we were better
But you showed me where to stand
Girlfriend
I thought you said
You were my best friend
So what you tellin'
To my boyfriend
Thought you were better
Than to fight over a man

Bridge:(reprise)
Oh, I thought you'd be happy for me
Instead you're spitting venom
Bein' salty, oh yeah
How could you put
My business in the streets
I found out what they meant
By your friend could be
Your worst enemy


Chorus to fade:
Ohhhhh, girlfriend
I thought you said
You were my best friend
So why you
Tellin' all my business
Thought we were better
But you showed me where to stand
Girlfriend
I thought you said
You were my best friend
So what you tellin'
To my boyfriend
Thought you were better
Than to fight over a man
