[ Featuring Donny Hathaway ]
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo
When you're down and troubled
And you need some lovin' care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Mm, 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 have to do is call
And I'll be there
You got a friend
Ain't it good to know that you got a friend?
People can be so cold, yeah
They'll hurt you, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don't you let them
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running, running, running, running, running, running, running
To see you again
Look out
Hey
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there (I'll be there)
You got a friend
Say it again (ooh-hoo)
You got a friend (you got a friend, indeed)
You got a friend, oh, darlin'
You got a friend (do you mean it?)
You got a friend
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You got a friend
