You’ve got a friend (9) — carol king, a 9, the warm and lovely non-pushing, reassuring quality of the 9

When you're down and troubled,

And you need some love and 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 have to do is call

And I'll be there

You've got a friend

If the sky above you grows 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, running, yeah, yeah, to see you again

Winter, spring, summer or fall

All you have to do is call

And I'll be there

And I'll be there, yes I will.

Now, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend

When people can be so cold?

They'll hurt you, yes, and 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, running, yeah, yeah, yeah, to see you again.

Winter, spring, summer or fall

All you have to do is call

And I'll be there, yes I will.

Ain't it good to know?

Ain't it good to know?

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

Oh yeah, now

Oh, you've got a friend

Yeah, baby

You've got a friend

Oh yeah...
