you've got a friend

all you need to know is you've got a friend

we've been living life

right 'til the end

if i'm troubled i know i can depend

'cause all i need to know is i've got a friend

baby let's cruise with the radio tunes

you know the best times come when there's nothing to do

it's rare that a player get a minute or two

so i cherish every second with a girl like you

ain't nothing like a home girl down for the ride

nothing like a home girl down for life

baby be my love

you could be my left-eye

be my umbrella

through the rain or shine

when i'm out of state i know you'll rep me

ain't no other woman will accept me

a man's only true as his options

but i keep it real home girl

cause i've got you

when you feel a hand on your back

you've got a friend

when you put me on the right track

you've got a friend

when i show the love right back

you've got a friend

damn it feels good to know i've got a friend

all you need to know is you've got a friend

we've been living life right 'til the end

if i'm troubled i know i can depend

'cause all i need to know is i've got a friend

yeah

when things get a little shaky like a can of krylon

you need a shoulder to cry on

need someone to rely on

i want you to know when you need a friend

i'm definitely a friend you can depend on

you can depend on me

like my name was smokey

so when things don't seem to be going your way

and nothing seems to be going right

i want to be the man that'll brighten your day

and turn your darkness to light

i'll be around to turn your frown upside down

permanently

because you've been a good woman to me

you deserve the best and nothing less

so the best is what you get and all my respect

what you expect

you've got my palabra

all the way 'til the end

baby doll you've got yourself a friend

all you need to know is you've got a friend

we've been living life right 'til the end

if i'm troubled i know i can depend

'cause all i need to know is i've got a friend

i'll always be your player partner

in and out the hot tub

always steak and lobster

smoking on a chopper

scraping through the boulevard

back to the avenue

good vibe

attitude

i ain't even mad at you

matter of fact that's all i feel with some gratitude

i just appreciate the time that i have with you

now i'm in and out your life like a robbery

got me on the road 'til i'm getting paid properly

and i can feel that you still so proud of me

and i can never get your corazon out of me

so little mama i'm a always be your handyman

so give me a call when you ready for some candyland

all you need to know is you've got a friend

we've been living life right 'til the end

if i'm troubled i know i can depend

'cause all i need to know is i've got a friend

all you need to know is you've got a friend

we've been living life right 'til the end

if i'm troubled i know i can depend

'cause all i need to know is i've got a friend
