You’ve Got a Friend Lyrics

[CAROLE]
When you're down and troubled
And you need some loving care
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 nights

You just call out my name
And you know where ever 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 will
You've got a friend

[CYNTHIA AND BARRY]
Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you

[KIRSCHNER]
Yes, and desert you

[CAROLE, CYNTHIA & BARRY]
They'll take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don't you let them
You just call out my name
And you know where ever I am
I'll come running, running, hey yeah
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

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
