When you're down and troubled
And you need some loving care
And nothin', nnothin' 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 have to do is call

And I'll be there
You've got a friend


If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow

Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knockin' at your door


You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am

I'll come runnin', runnin, yeah, yeah,
to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall

All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will


Now ain't it good to know
that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold

They'll hurt you, yes, and desert you
And 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, runnin', yeah, yeah, yeah
to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall

All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will
You've got a friend,

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

ain't it good to know,
ain't it good to know,
ain't it good to know,

you've got a friend,
oh yeah now, you've got a friend,
yeah baby, you've got a friend,

oh yeah, you've got a friend.
