Song Lyrics

When you're down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, no nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even the darkest night.

You just call out my name,
And you know where ever I am
I'll come running, just to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
All you've got to do is call
And I'll be there - you've got a friend.
You've got a friend.

If the sky above you
Should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together and call my name
Out loud
Soon I will be knocking at your door.

You just call out my name,
And you know where ever I am
I'll come running, just to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
All you've got to do is call
And I'll be there - you've got a friend.
You've got a friend.


Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?
People can be so cold.
They'll hurt you and desert you.
They'll take your soul if you let them.
But don't you let them.

You just call out my name,
And you know where ever I am
I'll come running, just to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
All you've got to do is call
And I'll be there - you've got a friend.
You've got a friend.
