Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends



I seen ya around for a long long time

I really remember you when you drank my wine



Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends



I'd seen ya walkin' down in Chinatown

I called ya but you could not look around



Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends



I pay my money to the welfare line

I see ya standing in it every time



Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends



The color of your skin don't matter to me

As long as we can live in harmony



Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends



I'd kinda' like to be the president

So I could show you how your money's spent

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends



Sometimes I don't speak right

But yet I know what I'm talking about



Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends



I know you're working for the CIA

They wouldn't have you in the mafia



Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends

Why can't we be friends



Why can't we be friends
