Friends

Who said that money was everything

Well that's a crock, you know what I'm saying

When the well runs dry

Say goodbye to fair weather friends

If I need a hug

And feel like crawling under a rug

If I fell on my face

I know that you'd be there to help me up

Cause it's you, only you that makes me strong

Cause there ain't nobody, no

Gonna make me live my life alone

A friend won't leave me lying in the road

While the others they just pelt me with their sticks and stones

Won't steal my money

Won't rob my home or take my honey

I hope my friend will always be there while I grow old

Lovers they come and go

Like ships to a dock, a bunch of heartbreakers they are

They blind you with their innocence

And tie your heart in knots

If I need some hope

And I feel like I'm at the end of my rope

You make that funny face

You're always there to cheer me up

Cause it's you, only you that will take me along

Cause there ain't nobody, no

I'd rather have to help me sing a song

A friend won't leave me lying in the road

While the others they just pelt me with their sticks and stones

Won't steal my money

Won't rob my home or take my honey

I hope my friend will always be there while I grow old

Won't think it's funny

And stand up for me, while others call me a dummy

A friend will always be there when I grow

A friend will always be there when I grow

A friend will always be there when I grow old
