[Chorus]
We've been friends now for so many years
We've been together through the good times and the tears
Turned each other on to the good things that life has to give

[Verse]
We drift apart for a little bit of a spell
One night I get a call and I know that you're well
And days I was down you would help me get out of my hole
Let's be friends
Let's be friends

You told me when my girl was untrue
I loaned you money when the funds weren't too cool
I talked your folks out of making you cut off your hair

[Chorus]
We've been friends now for so many years
We've been together through the good times and the tears
