| "Take Care of Your Friends" | ||
| |
||
| Friend is a word that I don't throw around | ||
| Though it's used & abused, I still like the sound. | ||
| I save it for people who've done right by me | ||
| And I know I can count on, if ever need be. | ||
| Some of my friends drive big limousines | ||
| Own ranches & banks & visit with queens, | ||
| And some of my friends are up to their neck | ||
| In overdue notes & can't write a check. | ||
| They're singers or ropers or writers of prose | ||
| And others, God bless'em, can't blow their own nose! | ||
| I guess bein' friends doesn't have anything to do | ||
| With talent or money or knowin' who's who. | ||
| It's a comfortable feelin' when you don't have to care, | ||
| 'Bout chosin' your words or bein' quite fair. | ||
| 'Cause friends'll just listen & let go on by | ||
| Those words you don't mean & not bat an eye. | ||
| It makes a friend happy to see your success. | ||
| They're proud of your good side & forgive all the rest. | ||
| And that ain't so easy, all of the time, | ||
| Sometimes I get crazy & seem to go blind! | ||
| Your friend just might have to take you on home, | ||
| Or remind you sometime, that you're not alone. | ||
| Or ever so gently pull you back to the ground, | ||
| When you think you can fly, with no one around. | ||
| A hug or a shake, whichever seems right | ||
| Is the high point of givin', I'll tell ya tonite, | ||
| All worldly riches & tributes of men, | ||
| Can't hold a candle to the worth of a friend. | ||

| Why God Made Friends | ||
| God made the world with a heartful of love, | ||
| Then He looked down from Heaven above, | ||
| And saw that we all need a helping hand, | ||
| Someone to share with, who'll understand. | ||
| He made special people to see us through | ||
| The glad times & the sad times, too; | ||
| A person on whom we can always depend, | ||
| Someone we can call a friend. | ||
| God made friends so we'll carry a part | ||
| Of His perfect love in all our hearts. | ||

| A friend is someone who truly cares, | ||
| A friend is someone who's always there, | ||
| A friend will be there is times of woe, | ||
| Talking, laughing, & sometimes letting go, | ||
| Times alone we sometimes need, | ||
| But coming back we will do indeed, | ||
| There may be times we may not agree, | ||
| For you are you & I am me, | ||
| We may argue because of that fact, | ||
| But our power of friendship will bring us back, | ||
| Cause the love in our hearts we feel inside, | ||
| Is not something we would ever hide, | ||
| So come to me in times of need, | ||
| Cause you my dear always have a friend in me. | ||
