[Verse 1: Michael Jackson & (The Jacksons)]
When you're down and troubled
And you need some love and care
And nothing, no, nothing is going right
Here's what you do
Just keep your head together (Together), together, baby
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking, knocking at your door
Yes I will, yes I will

[Chorus: Michael Jackson & (The Jacksons)]
You just call (Call) out my name (Out my name)
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running, yeah, yeah, to see you again
Oh, winter, spring, summer or fall, oh yeah
All you've got to do is call
And I'll be there, I'll be there (I'll be there)
Yes, I will, oh

[Bridge: Michael Jackson & (The Jacksons)]
Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?
People can be so cold, oh yeah
They'll hurt you (They'll hurt you), yeah
And they'll desert you (And desert you), uh-uh
And take your soul if you let them
But don't you let them
No no no, don't let them, ooh ooh
[Chorus: Michael Jackson & (The Jacksons)]
Winter, spring, summer or fall, oh yeah
All you've got to do is call
And I'll be there, I'll be there (I'll be there)
Yes, I will, oh

[Outro: Michael Jackson]
You've got a friend, yes you do
You've got a friend, yes you do
Right to the end, I know you, hey
You've got a friend, yes you do
You've got a friend, yes you do
To the end, I know you, hey
Thank you
