Thank You for Being a Friend Lyrics

Thank you for being a friend
Travel down a road and back again
Your heart is true
You're a pal and a confidant
I'm tellin' ya that

I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off
Won't you stand up and take a bow

And if you threw a party
Invited everyone you knew
You would see
The biggest gift will be from me
And the card attached would say

Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend

If it's a car you lack
I'd surely buy you a Cadillac
Whatever you need
Any time of the day or night
Well I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off
Won't you stand up and take a bow

And when we both get older
With walking canes and hair of gray
Have no fear even though it's hard to hear
I will stand real close and say

Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend

Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
And when we die and float away
Into the night, the Milky Way
You'll hear me call as we ascend
I'll see you there, then once again
oooooh...

Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend

Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend

I wanna thank you... for being... a friend
