You've Got a Friend

Lynn Anderson · How Can I Unlove You [1971]

(Carole King)



When you're down and troubled and you need a helping hand

And nothin' oh nothin' is goin' 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 runnin' 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 oh 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, oh

Keep your head together call my name out loud

Soon I'll be knocking upon your door.



Oh, you just call out my name and you know wherever I am

I'll come running, hey baby, to see you again

Oh, winter, spring, summer or fall

All you've have to do is call and I'll be there.



Oh, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend

People can be so cold

They'll hurt you desert you

They'll 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 runnin' 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 oh you've got a friend...
