You Do Have Your Friends

You do have your friends in your workplace and your friends in business as well
And friends that you do socialize with jokes and stories with to share and tell
And though you may be a very good person and to your higher self always true
Not everyone it should go without saying wishes to be a friend to you
And though you may be a very nice person one of the nice people of the town
There is always one or two out there who in their words will put you down
The one who does not have a friend in the World is the one who does not have a foe
You make out of that what you wish to or even ask how can this be so?
But the answer to that seems quite simple without friends foes you cannot make
When friends do fall out for some reason their parting can be a bitter break
There are some with their words who will knock you though you may be a living saint
They will dismiss you as a phony as one who is not free of taint
Yes you may be one loved by many the most popular one in the town
But always one or two out there who with their words will put you down.
