Asking For A Friend
Hey I was just wonderin' if anyone was sittin' here
And if not, would it be okay if someone bought you a beer
Let's say that someone wanted to dance
Would he have any snowball in hell of a chance
To get you out on the floor before this slow song ends
Oh yea yea yeah, just askin' for a friend
He ain't ever been any good at layin' it all out on the line
I swear down deep, believe me girl, he's a really good guy
If you can find it in your heart just to cut him some slack
He'd be johnny-on-the-spot here in two seconds flat
Yeah, he's holdin' his breath, come on give him a second with you
Ooh yea yea yeah
Yeah what do you say
It's Friday night and you're beautiful, so beautiful
What man wouldn't make you the love of his life
He'd be a fool, he'd be a fool
Just one drink would sure mean a lot to him
Yeah, I'm just askin' for a friend
Let's say this friend of mine went and messed up real bad
And he'd do anything in this world, girl, to get you back
Hey what kind of sorry would it take
For a man to erase his worst mistake
And would this even begin to make a dent
Ooh yea yea yeah what do you say
It's Friday night and you're beautiful, so beautiful
What man wouldn't make you the love of his life
He'd be a fool, he'd be a fool
I don't mean to ramble on like this
Hey I'm just askin' for a friend
Yeah what if I told you he hadn't slept in weeks
He was standin' right here in front of you instead of me
Is there any way you could ever love him again
Just askin' for a friend
And if not, would it be okay if someone bought you a beer
Let's say that someone wanted to dance
Would he have any snowball in hell of a chance
To get you out on the floor before this slow song ends
Oh yea yea yeah, just askin' for a friend
He ain't ever been any good at layin' it all out on the line
I swear down deep, believe me girl, he's a really good guy
If you can find it in your heart just to cut him some slack
He'd be johnny-on-the-spot here in two seconds flat
Yeah, he's holdin' his breath, come on give him a second with you
Ooh yea yea yeah
Yeah what do you say
It's Friday night and you're beautiful, so beautiful
What man wouldn't make you the love of his life
He'd be a fool, he'd be a fool
Just one drink would sure mean a lot to him
Yeah, I'm just askin' for a friend
Let's say this friend of mine went and messed up real bad
And he'd do anything in this world, girl, to get you back
Hey what kind of sorry would it take
For a man to erase his worst mistake
And would this even begin to make a dent
Ooh yea yea yeah what do you say
It's Friday night and you're beautiful, so beautiful
What man wouldn't make you the love of his life
He'd be a fool, he'd be a fool
I don't mean to ramble on like this
Hey I'm just askin' for a friend
Yeah what if I told you he hadn't slept in weeks
He was standin' right here in front of you instead of me
Is there any way you could ever love him again
Just askin' for a friend
