[Verse 1]
Everybody needs a buddy
I've often heard it said
You've got to have somebody
Who can understand your head

[Chorus]
Someone you can trust and rely on
Up until the very end
Everybody needs a friend

[Verse 2]
I once had a good friend
As close as she could be
We spent alot of time together
It was always her and me

[Chorus]
We used to have the same things goin'
Never used to disagree
My best friend and me

[Bridge]
She's my best friend
And I'll love her 'til the end
I got no time to worry 'bout my enemy
As long as I've got my best friend
[Verse 3]
Now, if you want a good friend
There's one thing that is true
You're gonna pick somebody
Who's an awful lot like you

[Chorus]
You've got to be the same kind of people
Then you're gonna get along
Nothing could go wrong

[Verse 4]
You both like the same things
And one day you'll agree
He's about the finest man
You're ever gonna see

[Chorus]
Right then and there the whole thing is different
Even though you may pretend
It's your lover or your friend, your lover or your friend?

[Bridge]
She's my best friend
And I'll love her 'til the end
I got no time to worry 'bout my enemy
As long as I've got my best friend
