[Intro]
Mama used to tell me, friends not good for you girl
But I know I would learn the hard way
[Verse 1]
Smile inna yuh face, them a chat behind yuh back
Gwan like them a sheep, but them a wolf inna pack
Nuh make them build yuh weed with lizard tail and gi yuh crack
If walls could a talk to yuh, trust me you would a shock
Say dem love you, don't fall for that
Man to man, so unjust memba that
Bob Marley done did sing that all around the world
Friends will sell you out fi two shillings and pearls
[Chorus]
Mama used to tell me, friends not good for you girl
But I know I would learn the hard way (Bun a fake friend)
Mama used to beg me, stay away from them girls
But I know I would face it anyway (A hypocrite dem)
[Verse 2]
Mmm, backstabber could be sister or yuh brudda
Yuh fu*k fi see a who would a pull di trigger
Live your life, everybody haffi pree
Watch your friends more than your enemy
It nuh matter what they come and say
They don't wanna see you on your way
They pull you back cah they want you stay
Under the ground, but a prayer a day and
[Chorus]
Mama used to tell me, friends not good for you girl
But I know I would learn the hard way (Bun a fake friend)
Mama used to beg me, stay away from them girls
But I know I would face it anyway (A hypocrite dem)
[Verse 3]
Stay in my zone 'cause I'm good pon mi own
A nuh, everybody fi know a weh yuh call home
When dem call you dem friend, yuh fi watch out fi dem 'cause
Mama used to say, mama used to say
[Chorus]
Mama used to tell me, friends not good for you girl
But I know I would learn the hard way (Bun a fake friend)
Mama used to beg me, stay away from them girls
But I know I would face it anyway (A hypocrite dem)
[Outro]
Mama used to tell me, friends not good for you girl
But I know I would learn the hard way (Bun a fake friend)
