That's What Friends Are For |
| Everybody needs one |
| Everybody |
| Yeah |
| Talking 'bout friends, oh, yeah |
| I got a call just the other day |
| From a friend I used to have |
| She was reaching out to touch somebody |
| Lord knows she sure could use a friend |
| (Life had been kind of rough) Oh, yeah |
| She had been dissed by a man |
| (I said: «Take me by the hand») |
| And I’ll stand right by your, girl |
| (That's what friends are for) |
| Count on me, baby (You can count on me) |
| There’s no need to cry (That's what friends are for) |
| (Everybody needs one) |
| Ooh, you know I’m right and, lady, I’m yours |
| (That's what friends are for) |
| I ain’t no fair-weather friend |
| You know I’ll stick with you thick or thin |
| From the moment we first met, ooh |
| Something about you I couldn’t forget (I couldn’t forget) |
| (Use to wonder how ya doing) How ya doing |
| And if you ever think about me, girl (Think about me, girl) |
| Better times are on the way |
| This I know or I wouldn’t even say it, uh-oh |
| That’s what friends are for (You can count on me, yeah) |
| There’s no need to cry (That's what friends are for) oh, yeah |
| (Everybody needs one) |
| Ooh, you know I’m right and, lady, I’m yours, oh |
| (Everybody needs somebody to love) |
| Ooh, and I believe it’s you, baby, it’s you, it’s you, I believe you, darling, |
| you |
| (That's what friends are for) |
| You can count on me, my lady |
| (Everybody needs one) |
| Oh, you know I’m right and, lady, I’m yours |
| Oh, oh, oh |
| Everybody needs somebody to love |
| Ooh, and I believe it’s you, baby, it’s you, it’s you (I believe you, darling, |
| ooh) |
| (That's what friends are for) |
| You can count on me, my lady |
| (Everybody needs one) |
| Ooh, you know, that’s right |
| 'Cause, lady, I’m yours (That's what friends are for) you don’t mean, my lady |
| (That's what friends are for) Every day, every night |
| I’m gonna make everything alright for you and me right now |
| (Everybody needs one) |
| Oh, you know I’m right and, lady, I’m yours, all yours, all yours |
| (That's what friends are for) |
| That’s what friends are for |
| Come one, yall, sing it again, yeah |
| Come on, yall |
| Every day, every night |
| (Everybody needs one) |
| Oh, you know I’m right and, lady, I’m yours, all yours, all yours |

| Come on, yall, sing it again, come one |
| Ain’t no need to cry, oh-oh |
| (Everybody needs one) |
| Oh, you know I’m right and, lady, I’m yours |
