When you're down and troubled
and you need a helping hand
and nothing, ooh, 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 wherever I am
I'll come running, oh yeah baby
to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer or fall,
all you have to do is call
and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah
You've got a friend.

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 and call my name out loud
and soon I will be knocking upon your door.
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 go to do is call
and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?
People can be so cold.
They'll hurt you and desert you.
Well they'll take your soul if you let them.
Oh yeah, but don't you let them.

You just call out my name,
and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again.
Oh babe, don't you know that,
Winter, spring, summer or fall,
Hey now, all you've go to do is call.
Lord, I'll be there, yes Iwill.
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 you've got a friend.
You've got a friend

  • thumps up if you still listen this in 2011!!

  • I love this song!! I first heard it while watching Wonder Years. It makes me think of my friend Esmeralda who died of cancer at the age of 13. At that age I had so many questions, I was so innocent to how mean kids could be. But she knew she had a friend in me and I had a friend in me. Although it''s been almos 6 years I will always remember my dear friend Emeralda. Rest In peace.

  • I love this song!!! Could someone tell me where did they do that presentation?? The video said it was in 1971, but i'vv never found the whole concert...

  • Just give me the "Way Back Machine" that The Professor & Poindexter used on the "Rocky & Bullwinkle Show" back in the 60's!!! If you remember that you get it! I would use it on a regular basis to take me back to the times when music was true & real, & most ppl wrote their own songs. Makes a BIG difference! Thumbs up if you agree & are old enough to appreciate this post.
