Two-Faced World by Millie Jackson Lyrics

Genre: rb | Year: 1973

[Verse 1]
I gave a friend some money, huh
When hers was running low, yeah
I thought she'd always be there
When I needed some place to go, yeah

[Pre-Chorus 1]
But I found out she was just an enemy
'Cause that good old friend of mine
Been saying some terrible things about me

[Chorus 1]
It's a two-faced world
From the bottom to the top, yeah
It's a two-faced world
Where is it all gonna stop? Lord, Lord...

[Verse 2]
I had a good, true love – at least that's what he said
He told me that, y'all!
So I was really shocked to find her in his bed, yeah
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I really love that man, but it took a lot of gall
To look me dead in the eye and say
"She just slept here, that's all"

[Chorus 2]
It's a two-faced world
Got me caught up in this trap, yeah
It's a two-faced world
Sitting in the devil's lap, yeah... hey!

[Chorus 2]
Two-faced world
Got me caught up in this trap, yeah
It's a two-faced world
Sitting in the devil's lap, yeah... hey!

[Verse 3]
Pledged my allegiance to justice and liberty, yes I did
But now I know that justice has a crack in his liberty bell
To give us all our freedom, but let us live in... well

[Chorus 1]
It's a two-faced world
From the bottom to the top, yeah
It's a two-faced world
Where is it all gonna stop?
[Chorus 2]
Two-faced world
Got me caught up in this trap, yeah
It's a two-faced world
Sitting in the devil's lap, yeah...
