Thank You For Being A Friend

Thank you for being a friend
Traveled down the road and back again
Your heart is true
You're a pal and a confidant

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 would 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
Anytime of the day or night

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

(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

(I wanna thank you) let me tell you bout 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

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: Thank you for being a

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

People, let me tell you 'bout 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

Woah, tell you 'bout a friend (let me thank you right now for being a friend)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna tell you 'bout a pal and I'll tell you again)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you, thank you)
Thank you for being a friend, woah
