You've Got a Friend

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 (oh yeah, baby)

To see you again

Winter, spring, summer or fall

All you've got to do is call

And I'll be there (yeah, yeah, yeah)

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 now

Soon I'll be knocking upon your door



You just call out my name

And you know, wherever I am

I'll come running (oh, yes I will)

To see you again

Winter, spring, summer or fall

All you've got to do is call

And I'll be there, yeah yes



Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend

When people can be so cold

They hurt you and desert you

Well, they take your soul if you let them

Oh, but don't you let them



You just call out my name

And you know, wherever I am

I'll come running

To see you again

(Oh baby, don't you know 'bout)

Winter, spring, summer or fall

(Hey, now) all you've got to do is call

I'll be there (yes, I will)



You've got a friend

Ain't it good to know

You've got a friend
