[Verse 1]
When you're down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
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 night
[Chorus]
You just call out my name
And you know wherever 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'll be there
You've got a friend
[Verse 2]
If the sky above you should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together now or call my name out loud
And soon I'll be knocking upon your door
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
People can be so cold
They'll hurt you, yes, and desert you
Or they'll take your soul if you let them
Ah, but don't you let them
[Chorus]
You've got a friend
