Lyrics A Friend of Mine - Gladys Knight , The Pips

A friend of mine told me that you were just no good
And you would never be
A friend of mine told me that the best thing to do
Would be to set you free

So I let you slip away
And I just got the news today
You're doing fine with a friend of mine

A friend of mine told me
You would never amount to anything
A friend of mine told me
That heartache and trouble is all you'd bring

Like a fool I let you go
And wasn't I surprised to know
You're doing fine with a friend of mine
You're doing fine with a friend of mine

I'll never forget it
I'll always regret it
I should have kept the faith until the end

But this is the sad part
You're still in my heart
Didn't, didn't have to be like that
If I had any sense
I would have fought back

But I let you slip away
And I just got the news today
You're doing fine
You're doing fine
You're doing fine with a friend of mine
