Thank you for

being a friend

Travelled down the road

and back again

Your heart is true

you're a pal and a

confidante

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

Well 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 grey

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

Let me tell you 'bout

a friend

Thank you for being a

friend

Thank you for being a

friend

Thank you for being a

friend

Die and float away

I'll see you there...

then once again

Thank you for being a

Thank you for being a

friend

Thank you for being a

friend

Thank you for being a

friend

Thank you for being a

friend

Woah let me

tell you 'bout a friend

Thank you for being a

friend

Thank you for being a

Thank you for being a

friend....
