When you're down and troubled

And you need a helping hand

And nothing, whoa, 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 have to do is call

And I'll be there, yes, I'll be there

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 now or call my name out loud

And soon I'll be knocking upon your door



You just call out my name 

And you know wherever I am

I'll come running to see you again

Don't you know that 

Winter, spring, summer or fall

All you got to do is call

And I'll be there, yes, I'll be there



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

People can be so cold

They'll hurt you, yes, and desert you

Or they'll take your soul if you let them

Ah, 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

Don't you know that

Winter spring summer or fall

All you have to do is call

And I'll be there, yes, I'll be there

You've got a friend



You've got a friend
