  Once upon a time I had a real good friend at least that's what I thought

 But it wasn't long till my good friend and the man I love got caught

 So who in the world is a foolin' who let's not kid ourself

 We can count our friends on one hand and have five fingers C left

 Friends are few and far between believe me I should know

 And a real good way of findin' out is let no money show

 So who in the world is a foolin' who let's not kid ourself

 We can count our friends on one hand and have five fingers left

 When you're down and out and you need a friend you'll find they're hard to find

 And when you do don't turn your back cause you're friend will rob you blind

 So who in the world is a foolin' who let's not kid ourself

 We can count our friends on one hand and have five fingers left

Keep your eyes wide open and your big mouth shut and G you'll find out a C lot

F who in the world is a C foolin' who let's not kid G ourself

We can C count our friends F on one hand G and have five fingers C left So

F So who in the world is a C foolin' who let's not kid G ourself
