My Best Friend Barbara - Connie Francis

I told my best friend Barbara what a great guy Jimmy was

Who ever thought the day would come when Jimmy would be hers

My best friend Barbara told me Jimmy’s no good

And like a fool I listened to her

The way she knew I would

My best friend Barbara

My best friend Barbara said he cheats and he lies

She couldn’t wait for me to break up with him

Now Jimmy’s Barbara’s guy

My best friend Barbara

Look at her — hangin' on his arm

Tryin' very hard to please

There’s a moral to the story

With friends like her

Who needs enemies

My best friend Barbara, she’s going steady with Jim

And every single night I sit up and cry

While Barbara’s kissin' him

My best friend Barbara

Look at her — hangin' on his arm

Tryin' very hard to please

There’s a moral to the story

With friends like her

Who needs enemies

My best friend Barbara, she’s going steady with Jim

And every single night I sit up and cry

While Barbara’s kissin' him

My best friend Barbara

And if it takes me forever and a day

I’m gonna steal my Jimmy away from

My best friend Barbara

Oh, her lipstick’s all a mess

She thinks that she’s the best

She’s walkin' down the street in a tight yellow dress

My best friend Barbara
