when you're down and troubled
and you need a helping hand
and nothing or nothing is going right
close your eyes and think of me
and soon i will be there
to brighten up even your darkest nights
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,oh
and i ll be there, yes i will
you've got a friend
if the sky's above you
should turn dark and full of clouds
and there all north wind should begin to blow
keep your head together
and call my name out loud
soon you ll hear me knocking upon your door
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've got to do is call and i ll be there, yes i will
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 ll take your soul if you let them,oh
but don't you let them
call loud my name and you know wherever i am
i ll come running to see you again
winter,spring , summer or fall
all you've got to do is call and i ll be there, yes i will
you've got a friend, yeah
you've got a friend
you've got a friend
