All you need to know is you've got a friend
 We've been living life, right 'til the end
 If I'm troubled I know I can depend
 'Cause all I need to know is I've got a friend
 
 Baby let's cruise with the radio tunes
 You know the best times come when there's nothing to do
 It's rare that a player get a minute or two
 So I cherish every second with a girl like you
 
 Ain't nothing like a home girl down for the ride
 Nothing like a home girl down for life
 Baby be my love, you could be my Left-Eye
 Be my umbrella, through the rain or shine
 
 When I'm out of state I know you'll rep me
 Ain't no other woman will accept me
 A man's only true as his options
 But I keep it real home girl, cause I've got you
 
 
 When you feel a hand on your back, you've got a friend
 When you put me on the right track, you've got a friend
 When I show the love right back, you've got a friend
 Damn it feels good to know I've got a friend
 
 All you need to know is you've got a friend,
 We've been living life right 'til the end
 If I'm troubled I know I can depend
 'Cause all I need to know is I've got a friend
 
 
 Yeah, when things get a little shaky like a can of Krylon
 You need a shoulder to cry on, need someone to rely on
 I want you to know when you need a friend
 I'm definitely a friend you can depend on
 
 You can depend on me
 Like my name was Smokey
 
 
 So when things don't seem to be going your way
 And nothing seems to be going right
 I want to be the man that'll brighten your day
 And turn your darkness to light
 
 
 I'll be around to turn your frown upside down, permanently
 Because you've been a good woman to me
 You deserve the best and nothing less
 So the best is what you get and all my respect
 
 
 What you expect
 You've got my palabra
 All the way 'til the end
 Baby doll you've got yourself a friend
 
 All you need to know is you've got a friend
 We've been living life right 'til the end
 If I'm troubled I know I can depend
 'Cause all I need to know is I've got a friend
 
 
 I'll always be your player partner
 In and out the hot tub, always steak and lobster,
 Smoking on a chopper
 
 
 Scraping through the boulevard, back to the avenue
 Good vibe, attitude, I ain't even mad at you
 Matter of fact that's all I feel with some gratitude
 I just appreciate the time that I have with you
 
 
 Now I'm in and out your life like a robbery
 Got me on the road 'til I'm getting paid properly
 And I can feel that you still so proud of me
 And I can never get your corazon out of me
 
 
 So little mama I'm a always be your handyman
 So give me a call when you ready for some candyland
 
 All you need to know is you've got a friend
 We've been living life right 'til the end
 If I'm troubled I know I can depend
 'Cause all I need to know is I've got a friend
 
 All you need to know is you've got a friend
 We've been living life right 'til the end
 If I'm troubled I know I can depend
 'Cause all I need to know is I've got a friend
