I’ll Be A Friend With Pleasure

1930 – Maceo Pinkard

Verse 1:

You can say ‘forget you’, that it’s for the best. Altho’ when I met

you, you seemed so impressed. Friends have often spoken of you and I,

so deep in love. It’s too bad I let you put me to the test.

Chorus:

Right from the start you played a part. I gave my heart with pleasure.

Your fond caress brought happiness. I’d answer “Yes with pleasure.”

Sun-set till dawn, tho’ you are gone, dreams linger on I treasure. If

you contend this is the end, I’ll Be A Friend With Pleasure. Pleasure.

Verse 2:

Fondest recollections, dearest I recall. Fondest of affections,

I re-call them all. When the moon was swing-ing low and you said “I love

you so”. When we

changed directions, castles had to fall.
