Monette Moore — Friendless Blues

[Verse 1] I know what's on your mind, you're going away It surely breaks my heart, 'cause you're going to stay I might've known you couldn't be true I lost my good friend fooling with you Listen here, Mr. So-And-So Let me tell you this before you go [Verse 2] You brought me far away from home You brought me far away from home And leave me friendless, brokenhearted, and alone [Verse 3] I ain't got no clothes, can't buy no meat I ain't got no clothes, can't buy no meat I'm a rolling stone on these cold and friendless streets [Instrumental Break] [Verse 4] I've cried and walked with my shoes down at the heel Baby, shoes down at the heel So if you've ever been friendless, you know just how I feel [Verse 5] When I had money, you had hats and shoes Baby, you had hats and shoes Now that it's gone, you're leaving your mama with the friendless blues
