Eddie, You Should Know Better lyrics

[Verse 1]

Eddie, you should know better

Brother, you know you're wrong

Think of the tears and fears

You bring to your folks back home

They'd say, "Where did he go wrong, my Lord?"

We planned and worked hard

From the very start

Tried to make him better

Than all the rest

But the brother proved to be

So much less

[Verse 2]

Eddie is everybody's friend

But sometimes, you wonder now and then

The only time he'll choose you

When theres's something to lose through

His personal loss

And the friend pays the cost

All the time

Must be something' that's freezin' his mind

That has made him, through greed, so very blind

And I don't think he's gonna make it this time
