Well my Daddy used to tell me
Any man can be a king,
It ain´t that complicated,
It´s a very simple thing.
You don´t need no castle or throne for sitting in,
All you need is one good friend.

If you find yourself somebody who will meet you at a stop,
On a rainy sunday morning before the sun is even up.
Who´ll stand right there beside you and fight any fight you´re in,
Then you´ve got one good friend.

There ain´t nothing wrong with all those rowdy boys I run with,
The ones that I go drink with after work.
Lately it´s been hit´n me that when my heart´s in trouble,
You´re the one that always shows up first.

You´re a pleasure as a lover, you´re a treasure as a wife.
I don;´t have to wonder what I can count on in this life.
You´ve already proved it too me time and time again
Baby you´re one good friend.

You´re the one who sends me flying and gently reels me in,
Baby you´re one good friend.
