Intro
x2
1st verse
I met a girl that I wanted to date
make love to her but she wanted me to wait
I met her on tour at my concert
She had long hair and a short skirt
I was onstage my clothes are covered with sweat
And walkin' through the crowd and guess who I met
Refr.:
Uuh, you got what I need
but you say he's just a friend
And you say he's just a friend
Interlude
x2
2nd verse
So I took a word at this time
I thought just havin' a friend sure couldn't be no crime
'cause I got friends and girls and that is cool
Like Agatha, Germaine, and Jacq
The show was over, she went back to school
I called every day to see how she was doin'
Somehow I knew it seemed that somethin' was brewin', trouble was brewing
Refr.:
Uuuh, you got what I need
but you say he's just a friend
And you say he's just a friend x2
3rd verse:
So the month passed by I went to visit her in college
To my surprise thought things are pretty stalled
I went to a gate to ask where was her dorm
The man at the desk filled out a visitor's form
I went upstairs and opened up the door
I saw a fellow making love to my girl on the floor, oh shit!
Refr.:
You, you got what I need
but you say he's just a friend
And you say he's just a friend
Outro
So listen to the words I say
Don't talk to a girl who says she just has a friend
