Friends - Session 1

Oh, you got to have friends
The healin's oh-so strong
You got to have friends
To make the day last long

Had some friends but they're gone
Somethin' came and took them away
And from the dusk till the dawn
Here's where I will stay

Standing at the end of the road
Was waitin' for my new friends to come
I don't care if I'm hungry or cold
Freezing
I gotta get me some

'Cause you got to have friends
Bum-bum, bum-bum, bum-bum, buh, bah, friends
That's the favorite part of my voice (friends, friends)
You know, I really love to hear that (friends, I am)

Hm, oh-oh, friends (talkin' about friends)
(I said ya, I said ya gotta have, ya gotta have some)
(Friends (I sorta said, I said ya gotta have friends)
Thank you, oh-oh, friends
Friends, friends, friends (it's gone, it's gone long enough)

I had some friends, oh, but they're all (gone) gone, gone
Some (–thing so stupid) took 'em away
And from the dusk till the dawn (yeah, I said)
Here is where I'm gonna stand still, aw-ah

Standing at the end of a real long road, Jack (and)
And I'm waiting for those new friends to come (come)
And I don't care if I'm hungry or freezin', freezin' cold
Ya got ta, ya got ta go get some (ssh!)
'Cause ya gotta have ('cause it's good to have (aw, just sing it))

You got ta have friends (friends)
I'm tellin' you (you know it takes)
I am speaking 'cause I know (you know?)
It's going too fast (I had, I had a strange)
We're all goin' too fast (childhood and)
I'm tryin' to tell you to slow down (and)
They're hard to come by (and it's very)
'Cause friends are hard to come by (difficult, um)

'Cause I didn't have too many friends (we're going too fast)
You know (and the whole thing's gonna get-celerate!) But
Things are getting better now and (slow down, man, find yourself)
And I think it's gonna be okay (a friend, a friend, a friend)
'Cause I have a couple now ('cause ya know)
You know (ya gotta have friends)

It's really nice when you have a friend (yeah)
It's not so nice when (yeah)
You don't have a friend (you know that ya gotta)
God, it's lonely (ya got ta have a friend, yeah-yeah)
But it's nice when you (ya gotta, ya gotta, ya gotta)
Haven't heard that (have a friend, I'll be your friend)
You really did have some friends but (I'll, friend)

You know, they're hard to come by, baby (see, it's always so off)
I always say they're hard to come by (it's so hard but my friend)
Especially these days (uh)

I'm gonna take it easy (we're going so fast)
And relax and (we're going so fast and it's hard to find a)
And it's gonna be alright (friend)
'Cause I got me one (a little)
I said I got me one! (bit of comfort, a friend)
I got me, I got me a friend!
