Friend is a word that i don’t throw around
Though it is used and abused, i still like the sound
I save it for people who’ve done right by me
and i know i could count on if ever need be
some of my friends drive big limousines
own ranches and banks and visits with greens
and some of my friends are up to their neck
in overdue ntes and can’t write a check
they’re singers and writers
and others, God bless ‘em, can’t blow their own nose!
i guess being friends doesn’t have anything to do
with talent or money or knowing who’s who
it’s a comfortable feeling when you don’t have to care
‘bout choosing your words of being quite fair
‘cause friends will just listen and let go on by
those words you don’t mean and not bat an eye
it makes a friend happy to see your success
they’re proud of your good side and forvien all the rest
and that ain’t so easy all the time,
sometimes i get crazy and seem to go blind!
your friend just might have to take you home
or remind you sometime, you’re not alone!
or even so gently pull you back to the ground,
when you think you could fly when no one is around.
a hug or a shake, which ever seems right
is the high point of giving, I’ll tell you tonight,
all worldly riches and tributes of men,
CAN’T HOLD A CANDLE TO WORTH OF A FRIEND.
