[Intro]
N.C.
Have you ever met a girl that you tried to date
But a year to make love she wanted you to wait, well
Let me tell you a story of my situation
I was talking to this girl from the U.S. nation
[Verse 1]
N.C.
The way that I met her was on tour at a concert
She had long hair and a short miniskirt
I just got onstage dripping, pouring with sweat
I was walking through the crowd and guess who I met
I whispered in her ear, come to the picture booth
So I can ask you some questions to see if you are a hundred proof
I asked her her name, she said blah-blah-blah
She had 9/10 pants and a very big bra
I took a couple of flicks and she was enthused
I said, how do you like the show?
She said, I was very amused
I started throwing bass, she started throwing back mid-range
But when I sprung the question, she acted kind of strange
Then when I asked, do ya have a man, she tried to pretend
She said, no I don't, I only have a friend
Come on!
[Chorus]
N.C.
Oh baby you, you got what I need but you say he's just a friend
But you say he's just a friend, oh baby
C Dm
You, you got what I need but you say he's just a friend
G
But you say he's just a friend
[Verse 2]
C
So I took blah-blahs word for it at this time
Dm
I thought havin a friend couldn't be no crime
cause I got friends and that's a fact
G
Like Agnes, Agatha, Germaine, and Jack
C
Forget about that, let's go into the story
Dm
About a girl named blah-blah-blah that adored me
So we started talking, gettin' familiar
G
Spending a lot of time so that we can build a
C
Relationship or some understanding
Dm
How it's gonna be in the future we was planning
Everything sounded so dandy and sweet
G
I had no idea I was in for a treat
C
After this was established, everything was cool
Dm
The tour was over and she went back to school
I called every day to see how she was doin'
G
Everytime that I called her it seemed something was brewin'
C
I called her on my dime, picked up, and then I called again
Dm
Ayo, who was that? oh, he's just a friend
Hahahaha, oh no!
[Chorus]
N.C.
Oh baby you, you got what I need but you say he's just a friend
But you say he's just a friend, oh baby
C Dm
You, you got what I need but you say he's just a friend
G
But you say he's just a friend
[Bridge]
Damn girl, what you want from me?
I'll give you anything
Want any kind of subscription to a magazine?
Give you a potato
A mask of some sort
I love you
[Verse 2]
N.C.
So I came to her college on a surprise visit
To see my girl that was so exquisite
It was a school day, I knew she was there
The first semester of the school year
C
I went to the gate to ask where was her dorm
Dm
This guy made me fill out a visitors form
So I did and I was on my way
G
To see my baby girl, I was happy to say
C
I rolled up to her dormitory
Dm
Yo, could you tell me where is door three?
He told me where it was and for the moment
G
I didn't know I was in for such an event
N.C.
I went to her room and opened the door
Oh, snap! Guess what I saw?
Dm
A fella tongue-kissin my girl in the mouth,
G
I was so in shock my heart went down south
C
So please listen to the message that I send
Dm
Don't ever talk to a girl who says she just has a friend
[Chorus]
N.C
Oh baby you, you got what I need (doowah) but you say he's just a friend
But you say he's just a friend, oh baby
C Dm
You, you got what I need but you say he's just a friend
G
But you say he's just a friend, oh baby you
