[Verse 1]nWhen you're down and troublednAnd you need a helping handnAnd nothing, whoa, nothing is going rightnClose your eyes and think of me and soon I will be therenTo brighten up even your darkest nightnn[Chorus]nYou just call out my namenAnd you know wherever I amnI'll come running to see you againnWinter, spring, summer, or fallnAll you have to do is callnAnd I'll be there, yes, I'll be therenYou've got a friendnn[Verse 2]nIf the sky above you should turn dark and full of cloudsnAnd that old north wind should begin to blownKeep your head together now or call my name out loudnAnd soon I'll be knocking upon your doornn[Chorus]nn[Verse 3]nHey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friendnPeople can be so coldnThey'll hurt you, yes, and desert younOr they'll take your soul if you let themnAh, but don't you let themnn[Chorus]nnYou've got a friend
