When you're down and troubled and you need some love and care.
And nothing oh nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me and soon i will be there.
To brighten up even your darkest night.

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've got to do is call.
And I'll be there, oh yes I will.
You've got a friend.

If the sky above you grows dark and full of clouds.
And that old north wind begins to blow.
Keep your head together and call my name out loud.
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door.

You just call out my name and you'll know wherever I am,
I'll come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer or fall.
All you've got to do is call.
And I'll be there, oh yes I will.

Now, aint it good to know, that you've got a friend.
When people can be so cold?
They'll hurt you and desert you.
And take your soul if you let them,
oh, but do'nt you let them.

You just call out my name and you know wherever I am,
I'll come running to see you again.
Hey, come on jongens.
Winter, spring, summer or fall.
All you've got to do is call.
And I will be there, oh yes I will.
You've got a friend.

And it's good to know that you've got a friend.
Oh baby.
You've got a friend.
Oh yeah.
You've got a friend.
