James Taylor
You’ve Got a Friend (Live)
[Intro: Carole King]
Thank you. I'm gonna be right back.
Surprise! Oh.
We'd like to do a little tune for you. Maybe even a big tune.
[Verse 1: Carole King]
When you're down and troubled
And you need some loving care
And nothin', oh nothin' is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night
[Chorus: Carole King, Carole King & James Taylor]
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come runnin'
To see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you've got to do is call
And I'll be there (Oh yeah yeah yeah)
You've got a friend
[Verse 2: James Taylor]
If the sky high above you
Should grow dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud (Now baby, yeah yeah yeah)
Soon I'll be knocking upon your door
[Chorus: James Taylor, James Taylor & Carole King]
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come runnin'
To see you again y'all
Winter, spring, summer or fall
Hey now, all you got to do is call
And I'll be there (Yeah yeah yeah now)
[Bridge: Carole King & James Taylor, Carole King]
Well 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
[Chorus: Carole King & James Taylor, Carole King, James Taylor]
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come runnin', a-runnin', yeah, yeah yeah
To see you again (Ooh ooh now)
Winter, spring, summer or fall
Hey now, all you got to do is call
And I'll be there, be there (Yeah yeah yeah)
You've got a friend
[Outro: Carole King, James Taylor]
You've got yourself a friend now
Hey now baby, you've got a friend
Now ain't it fine to know that you've got a friend
Oh now baby, you've got a friend
Yeah yeah, ain't it good to know
Ain't it good to know
Ain't it good to know
You've got a friend
Thank you.
