Thank You for Being a Friend -- Andrew Gold

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

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
Let me tell you bout a friend  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
Thank you for being a friend  Thank you for being a friend
