My Friends Are Gonna Be Strangers

(album: The Thin Man From West Plains - 1965)

All the love you promised would be mine forever
I would have bet my bottom dollar on
Well, it sure turned out to be a short forever
Just once I turned my back and you were gone

From now on all my friends are gonna be strangers
I'm all through ever trusting anyone
The only thing I can count on now is my fingers
I was a fool believing in you now you are gone

It amazes me not knowing any better than to think I had a love that could be true
Why I should be taken out tired and feathered to have let myself be taken in by you

From now on all my friends are gonna be strangers
I'm all through ever trusting anyone
The only thing I can count on now is my fingers
I was a fool believing in you now you are gone
