(intro)
When you re down and troubled and you need a helping hand,
and nothing, oh, nothing is going right,
close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there
to brighten up even your darkest night.
You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am,
I ll come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you got to do is call
and I ll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah. (2nd time -->*)
You ve got a friend.
If the sky above you should turn dark and full of clouds,
and that old north wind should begin to blow,
keep your head together and call my name out loud.
Soon I ll be knocking upon your door. ------>(**)
Hey ain t it good to know that you ve got a friend when
people can be so cold. They ll hurt you and desert you.
Well, they ll take your soul if you let them.
Oh yeah, but don t you let them.
You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am,

Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you got to do is call
and I ll be there, yes I will.
You ve got a friend. You ve got a friend.
