Ain't No Friend Lyrics by Bernard Houston
Bernard Houston Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hey, mama, you put food on the table, daddy's always gone out on the road
It's hard for a lonely girl to stay faithful, but that taxi driver ain't the way to go
How could a man steal another's family? Don't you know he's gonna take us down in shame?
Follow the love, don't go chasing money 'cause the only thing he'll leave behind is his name
[Chorus]
'Cause he gonna come home stumbling in around 3 AM
Waving that gun and swinging that bottle of gin
Might even throw a punch, drunker than a skunk
Hey mama, you know I love you
But John Ruggles, he ain't no friend of mine
[Verse 3]
This is the last frontier of foul mouths and boozers, Oklahoma could have made a happy homе
'Round here are lumbеrjacks, linemen, and losers, not a soul here is gonna bring us hope
[Chorus]
'Cause he gonna come home stumbling in around 3 AM
Waving that gun and swinging that bottle of gin
Might even throw a punch, drunker than a skunk
Hey mama, you know I love you
But John Ruggles, he ain't no friend of mine
[Bridge]
Get that dinner off the stove
Light up another smoke
Pack up everything we own
Lock the door and hold me tight
We can make it to the morning light
Get out the map and let's just fire 'way, far away
[Chorus]
'Cause he gonna come home stumbling in around 3 AM
Waving that gun and swinging that bottle of gin
Might even throw a punch, drunker than a skunk
Hey mama, you know I love you
Hey mama, you know I love you
But John Ruggles, he ain't no friend, ain't no friend, ain't no friend of mine
Ain't no friend of mine
