When you're down and troubled And you need a helping hand And nothin', nothin' is goin' 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 runnin' to see you again Winter, spring, summer or fall Well all you have to do is call And I'll be there 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 knockin' upon your door You just call out my name And you know wherever I am I'll come runnin', runnin To see you again Winter, spring, summer or fall All you have to do is call And I'll be there Hey ain't it good to know That you've got a friend People can be so cold They'll hurt you, they'll desert you They'll take your soul if you let them But don't you let them You just call out my name And you know wherever I am I'll come runnin Yeah, to see you again Winter, spring, summer or fall All you have to do is call And I'll be there And I'll be there And I'll be there, yes I will 'Cause you've got a friend You've got a friend
