"You've Got a Friend" Lyrics

(Carole King)

When you're down and troubled and you need some loving care
And nothing nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night.

You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter spring summer or fall all you've got to do is call
And I'll be there yes I will
You've got a friend.

If the sky above you goes dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door.

You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter spring summer or fall all you've got to do is call
And I'll be there.

Now ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you desert you and take your soul if you let them
Oh but don't you let them.

You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter spring summer or fall all you've got to do is call
And I'll be there.

You've got a friend ain' it good to know
You've got a friend you've got a friend...
