[Verse 1]
Eddie, you should know better
Brother, you know you're wrong (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?" (What's wrong, my Lord?)
We planned and worked hard from the very start (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 (Come again, my friend)
But sometimes, you wonder now and then
Thе only time he'll choose you
Whеn theres's something to lose through his personal loss
And the friend pays the cost all the time (All the time)
Must be something' that's freezin' his mind (In his mind)
That has made him, through greed, so very blind (So blind)
And I don't think he's gonna make it this time

This time
