You've Got A Friend Lyrics - James Taylor

When you're down and troubled 

And you need a helping hand 

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, oh yeah baby, to see you again 

Winter, spring, summer or fall 

All you've got to do is call 

And I'll be there, ye, ye, ye 

You've got a friend 

If the sky above you 

Should turn dark and full of clouds 

And that old north wind should begin to blow 

Keep you head together 

And call my name out loud now 

Soon you'll hear me knocking at you door 

You just call out my name 

And you know wherever I am 

I'll come running, oh yes I will, to see you again 

Winter, spring, summer or fall, ye 

All you have to do is call 

And I'll be there, ye, ye, yeah 

Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend 

When people can be so cold 

They'll hurt you, and desert you 

And take your soul if you let them, oh yeah, don't you let 'em now 

You just call out my name 

And you know wherever I am 

I'll come running to see you again, oh baby, don't you know 

Winter, spring, summer or fall 

Hey now, all you have to do is call 

And I'll be there, yes I will 

You've got a friend 

You've got a friend, yeah 

Ain't it good to know you've got a friend 

Ain't it good to know you've got a friend 

Oh, ye yeah, you've got a friend
