He's a friend of mine,
He's a friend of mine,

There was a time, I didn't believe at all,
Then one day, I had to give him a call,
There I was lying flat on my back,
The doctor said, I had a heart attack,
I said a prayer, before I went to sleep,
Next day you'll know, I was back up on my feet,

Oh,
He's a friend of mine, ( He's a friend of mine, )
He's a friend of mine, ( I want everybody to know it, )
He's a friend of mine, ( Yeah, He is )
He's a friend of mine, ( He is a friend of mine, )

I don't say much, but I speak to Him every day,
He's always there, to help me find my way,
I don't deny, our close association,
He helps me out, of any situation,
If you read the book, of Revelations,
You'll find that He's, your only salvation,

Oh,
He's a friend of mine, ( Yeah, )
He's a friend of mine, ( I want everybody to know, )
He's a friend of mine, ( He is a friend of mine, )
He's a friend of mine, ( Ooh, He is a friend of mine, )

I don't deny, our close association,
He helps me out, of any situation,
If you read the book, of Revelations,
You'll find that He's, your only salvation,

He's a friend of mine, (He's a friend of mine, )
He's a friend of mine, ( I want everybody to know, )
He's a friend of mine, ( He is a friend of mine, )
He's a friend of mine, ( A friend, )
He's a friend of mine, ( Oooh, )
He's a friend of mine, ( Everybody's friend, )
He's a friend of mine, ( Everyday, in every way, )
He's a friend of mine, (Every way, a friend of mine, )
He's a friend of mine, (He is a friend of mine, )

He's in my heart,
He is,
He's in my mind,
All the time,
He's all I need,

He's a friend of mine, (Don't you need a friend, )
He's a friend of mine,
He's a friend of mine, ( Don't you need a friend, )
(Repeat and fade)
