We've been friends now for so many years
We've been together through the good times and the tears
Turned each other on to the good things that life has to give
We drift apart for a little bit of a spell
One night i get a call and i know that you're well
And days i was down you would help me get out of my hole
Ohh
Let's be friends
Let's be friends
Let's be friends
You told me when my girl was untrue
I loaned you money when the funds weren't too cool
I talked your folks out of making you cut off your hair
We've been friends now for so many years
We've been together through the good times and the tears
Dim dipple ee dim dipple ay dim dipple oo dim dee aye oh
We've been together through the good times and the tears
Turned each other on to the good things that life has to give
We drift apart for a little bit of a spell
One night i get a call and i know that you're well
And days i was down you would help me get out of my hole
Ohh
Let's be friends
Let's be friends
Let's be friends
You told me when my girl was untrue
I loaned you money when the funds weren't too cool
I talked your folks out of making you cut off your hair
We've been friends now for so many years
We've been together through the good times and the tears
Dim dipple ee dim dipple ay dim dipple oo dim dee aye oh

I always thought the line was...And days I was down you would help me get out of my home.
oh well.
I can't believe there are no comments on this song, it's so good.
I agree, cftw. I love this song... so simple and nostalgic; youthful innocence from an older, wiser perspective. I seem to remember reading that Brian wrote it with Mike in mind. It always put in that warm, sunny, optimistic Beach Boys frame of mind.
Back in the day, I thought the line was "help me get out of my head", but listening now it's clear that it's hole (or home).
