Lyrics He's A Friend - Eddie Kendricks

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,)

Instrumental break

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)
