Irving Berlin

The Best Of Friends Must Part
[1st verse:] What's that you say? No work today? Done lost your job? Where is your pay? Been shooting dice? That's very nice Needn't apologize, I'm cold as ice Pack up your clothes Lord only knows You've been the cause of my troubles and woes Don't ask me why Too late to cry Just bid yourself goodbye [Refrain:] A friend in need is a friend indeed That's just the kind of friend I've been to you When poverty smiled down on thee I hung around and stuck like glue It's a long long lane that has no turn You can never tell your finish when you start But when you find you can't make both ends meet Then the best of friends must part [2nd verse:] SongtexteDon't talk of love Just like a dove Can't eat the stars That shine above That stuff don't go You'd better blow Can't buy a meal with that lovin' you know I know it's hard On your old pard But I can't help that you played your last card Don't hesitate Evaporate Hunt up another mate Aus Songtexte Mania
