All Because
I got a star showin' the way
I got a road callin' my name
I got a song, happy or blue
All because I've got a friend in you

You've got a story, I've got mine
We put 'em together and made 'em rhyme
Writin' a song, we already knew
All because I've got a friend in you

Walkin' down the road I met a stranger
He said, "Brother, can you spare a dime?"
I reached in my pocket, pulled out a dollar
'Cause we're livin' in the needed time

We'vе got a home, a sanctuary
We've got a gardеn to feed us all
We're a family, I know it's true
All because I've got a friend in you

Walkin' down the road I met a neighbor
I said, "Sister, what's goin' on?"
She said, "Dark clouds are gatherin', thunder's in the air
Love's the only shelter from the storm"

I got a star showin' the way
I got a road callin' my name
I got a song, happy or blue
All because I've got a friend in you
All because I've got a friend in you
