What's going on my boy, it’s been a while
Since the last time we caught up
I see you walking with your head held down
Weight of life has got your shoulders hanging to the ground
But that's okay 'cause life can hurt sometimes
God gave you someone to help you fight
I got your back and that’s a fact
Whatever you need I'll be there, just remember that

You've got a friend in me, oh
You've got a friend in me
Life can get you down
Turn that frown around
'Cause you've got a friend in me

We heard that you were going through
But don't you crack girl 'cause we all been there too
Baby girl, don’t you know that you shine so bright
Let that hurt fade away and show the world your light
Don’t let tragedy stripe you of your smile
We're your friends and we’ll be fighting right by your side (Oh)
Just call my phone 8-3-3-2
And I'll come running, I'll be right there for you, oh

You've got a friend in me, oh
You’ve got a friend in me, whoa
Life can get you down
Turn that frown around
'Cause you've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me, oh
You've got a friend in me, oh
Life can get you down
Turn that frown around
'Cause you've got a friend in me

I can be the one you seek in your time of need, trust
Don't lie, no pretending and no fakes
Empty promises and old cliches
But I'm here for you day by day
If the situation changed I would not have stayed
Right until the wheels fall off
No matter what it cost
Understand that You, God

You've got a friend in me, oh
You've got a friend in me, oh
Life can get you down
Turn that frown around
'Cause you've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me, oh
You've got a friend in me, oh
I know that life can get you down
Turn that frown around
'Cause you've got a friend in me, oh
You've got a friend in me, oh
You've got a friend in me, oh
Life can get you down
Turn that frown around
'Cause you've got a friend in me

You don't ever have to worry, I'll always be right there
Life gets hard but you can count on me
(I'll always be there)
If you need me, just call me
Life can get you down sometimes and it could be real hard
But know that you've got somebody on your side
Who's praying for you and who loves you; no matter what
That's called a friend, oh
You got a friend in me
