And the card attached would say
"Thank you for being a friend"

I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend

If it's a car you lack
I'd surely buy you a Cadillac
Whatever you need any time of the day or night

I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow?

And when we both get older
With our walking canes and hair of gray
Have no fear even though it's hard to hear
I will stand in close and say
"Thank you for being a friend"

I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend

I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
I wanna thank you

And when we die and float away
Into the night, the milky way
You'll hear me call as we ascend
I'll call your name and once again

Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend


I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
Thank you, thank you, thank you for being a friend
I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
I wanna thank you, thank you for being a friend
