I am looking for some lyrics about good friends. I'd love to hear some input from you lyrics gurus! Thanks!

Buffett lyrics or anything?

Specifically from Buffett, or just generally?

To be sung in a round!


Make new friends
and keep the old
one is silver
and the other is gold.....Girl Scout Camp circa 1968

and of course there is:

You've got a friend by James Taylor sort of hits it on the head!!!

Or did you mean Buffetty songs?

Come on Nik you have to help us just Buffett or not

From The Toy Story You've Got a Friend in Me by Randy Newman

Well in the end, we can all call a friend, well that's something that I know as true
In a thousand years, and a thousand tears, I'll come finding my original crew
Cause to me throughout eternity there is somewhere we are welcome to go
I said it's something free that means a lot to me, when I'm with my friends I feel home

I feel home when I see the faces that remember my own
I feel home when I'm chillin outside with the people I know
I feel home, and that's just what I feel
Cause home, to me, is reality and all I need is something real
Home to me is reality and all I need is something real, I feel home

O.A.R. - I Feel Home

great song!!!

A personal favorite:

YOU'RE A FRIEND OF MINE
Clarence Clemons & Jackson Browne


Striking out?
Well count me in
I'm gonna stand right by your side through thick or thin
Ain't no doubt
Gonna win
A walk through hell ain't bad compared to where we've been

Oh you can depend on me
Over and over... over and over
Know that I intend to be
The one who who always makes you laugh until you cry
And you can call on me until the day you die

Years may come and go
Here's one thing I know
All my life
You're a friend of mine

That argument
I can't forget
We fought so hard I don't think I've recovered yet
The girls we knew
Who thought you were cool
I never introduced my favorite ones to you

Oh you can depend on me
Over and over... over and over
Know that I intend to be
The one who who always makes you laugh until you cry
And you can call on me until the day you die

Years may come and go
Here's one thing I know
All my life
You're a friend of mine

Oh you can depend on me
Over and over... over and over
Know that I intend to be
The one who who always makes you laugh until you cry
And you can call on me until the day you die

Years may come and go
Here's one thing I know
All my life
You're a friend of mine

Oh you can depend on me
I'll be fine
cause you're a friend of mine
yeeaah
I'll be fine
cause you're a friend of mine

Good question, but would she have posted under "Buffett Discussion" if she was looking for others' lyrics?? Just a thought....

And another old fave:
One Friend
© Dan Seals

I always thought you were the best
I guess I always will
I always felt that we were blessed
And I feel that way still
Sometimes we took the hard road
But we always saw it through
If I had only one friend left
I'd want it to be you


Sometimes the world was on our side
Sometimes it wasn't fair
Sometimes it gave a helping hand
Sometimes we didn't care
'Cause when we were together
It made the dream come true
If I had only one friend left
I'd want it to be you


(Chorus)


Someone who understands me
And knows me inside out
Helps keep me together
And believes without a doubt
That I could move a mountain
With someone to tell it to
If I had only one friend left
I'd want it to be you

HMMMMMMM Considering this topic is under Jimmy Buffett Discussion I would think she was referring to JB songs.....

The words in My African Friend comes to mind.

What sort of good friends ? Party friends or co-workers, run around/ hang with good time friends, or .....???

WDWGDAS could be suitable for very good friends!

I thought that too, Alison...but also thought she might know the Buffett references to friends.

Besides, it wouldn't be the first time someone posted in the wrong forum.

But I've got to stop wishin',
Got to go fishin', I'm down to rock bottom again.
Just a few friends, just a few friends.

APLAF

Sorry....buffett/buffettesque is what I'm looking for! Thanks! That's what happens when I try to multi task!

Get back to work (j/K)

That was the first song that popped in to my mind, too!
Great 80's album.....I have it tucked away in the vinyl collection.....

Half baked people on the bus
There's a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us!
