[Intro]
Oh
He's a friend of mine
He's a friend of mine

[Verse 1]
There was a time
I didn't believe at all
Then one day
I had to give him a call

[Pre-Chorus]
There I was lying flat on my back
The doctor said I had a heart attack
I said a prayer before I went to sleep
Next day you'll know I was back up on my feet

[Chorus]
Oh
He's a friend of mine
(He's a friend of mine)
I want everybody to know it
(He's a friend of mine)
Yeah, He is
(He's a friend of mine)
He is a friend of mine
(He's a friend of mine)
[Verse 2]
I don't say much
But I speak to Him every day
He's always there to help me find my way

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't deny our close association
He helps me out of any situation
If you read the book of Revelations
You'll find that He's your only salvation

[Chorus]
Oh
He's a friend of mine
(He's a friend of mine)
I want everybody to know
(He's a friend of mine)
He's a friend of mine
(He's a friend of mine)
He is a friend of mine

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't deny our close association
He helps me out of any situation
If you read the book of Revelations
You'll find that He's your only salvation
[Chorus]
(He's a friend of mine) Ho-ooh
He's a friend of mine
(He's a friend of mine)
I want everybody to know
(He's a friend of mine)
He is a friend of mine
(He's a friend of mine)
A friend
(He's a friend of mine)
Ooh
(He's a friend of mine)
Everybody's friend
(He's a friend of mine)
Everyday
(He's a friend of mine)
In every way
(He's a friend of mine)
Every way, he is a friend of mine
(He's a friend of mine)
He is a friend of mine

[Post-Chorus]
He, He's in my heart
He's, He is
He's in my mind
All the time
He's all I need
[Outro]
(He's a friend of mine)
Don't you need a friend?
(He's a friend of mine)
(He's a friend of mine)
Don't you need a friend
(He is a friend of mine)
He is a friend of mine
(He's a friend of mine)
