[Intro:]
Everybody needs a friend [x2]
One who won't pretend [x2]
A friend to the end [x2]
Trinidad and Tobago to Jamaica, Choc'late Queen Ifrica
Everybody needs a friend [x2]
One who won't pretend [x2]
A friend to the end [x2]
A once in a lifetime

[Chorus:]
I'm looking for a friend
A friend who won't pretend
A friend to last the end of a lifetime
Friend, everybody needs a friend
On whom you can depend
A friendship to last the end of a lifetime

[Verse: Choc'late]
I need a friend that I can trust
Sharing secrets is a must
And when together there's no fuss
That's a friend

Us, nobody could ever come between
When down, each other's shoulders, we can lean
A friend that will always be there for me
To climb every mountain and swim any sea

[Chorus]

[Verse: Queen Ifrica]
Is there anyone to take away the pain I feel?
Will I ever get to eat a decent meal?
All my life I've been trotting alone
Would you lend me your room?
I need a place to rest my bones
I wish I had a family
Is there any hope for me?
Take a chance and open the doors to your heart
Let me in, let's begin
Tell dem nuh Choc'late

[Verse: Choc'late]
I need a friend who is sincere
Whose heart is filled with love and care
One, who is always there,
That's a friend
When we sitting by de' bay, all chubby, chubby
You know that I'm feeling extra lucky
That I have a friend who understands, one I can relate to
Growing up together talking bout' the things we've been through

[Chorus]

[Verse: Queen Ifrica]
Catch me when I fall
Answer to my call
Never let me down
Say you're always gonna be around
Take my hand, friendship begins

Good to show love, that's what the father told us
Never turn your back on someone when they need you the most
Alays remember to be, as loving and caring as youcan be

[Bridge: Choc'late]
Us, nobody could ever come between
When down each other's shoulders, we can lean
A friend that will always be there for me
To climb every mountain and swim any sea

[Chorus]
