If you're ever in a jam, here I am 
If you're ever in a mess, S-O-S 
If you ever feel so happy, you land in jail, I'm your bail. 
It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship. 
When other friendships have been forgot, 
Ours will still be hot. 
Lah-dle-ah-dle-ah-dle dig, dig, dig. 

If you're ever up a tree, phone to me. 
If you're ever down a well, ring my bell. 
If you ever lose your teeth, and you're out to dine, borrow mine. 
It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship. 
When other friendships have been forgate, 
Ours will still be great. 
Lah-dle-ah-dle-ah-dle, chuck, chuck, chuck.
 
If they ever black your eyes, put me wise. 
If they ever cook your goose, turn me loose. 
If they ever put a bullet through your brain, I'll complain. 
It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship. 
When other friendships have been forgit, 
Ours will still be it. 
Lah-dle-ah-dle-ah-dle, hep, hep, hep.
