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
