Lyrics
If you were my friend (x2)

I would try to cheer you up

Whenever you're sad

If you were my friend (x2)

We would always talk things through

So we won't be mad

If you were my friend

I'd be a lucky, lucky, lucky boy

I'd look forward to the time I'd spend with you

If you were my friend

I'd be a lucky, lucky, lucky girl

'Cause things are so much fun when there are two

If you were my friend (x2)

In the cafeteria

I'd save you a seat

If you were my friend (x2)

I'd share my lunch with you

Even my treat

If you were my friend

I'd be a lucky, lucky, lucky boy

I'd look forward to the time I'd spend with you

If you were my friend

I'd be a lucky, lucky, lucky girl

'Cause things are so much fun when there are two

If you were my friend (x2)

I would still write you letters

When you're ninety-two

If you were my friend (x2)

I would still come to your parties

If your hair turned blue

If you were my friend

I'd be a lucky, lucky, lucky boy

I'd look forward to the time I'd spend with you

If you were my friend

I'd be a lucky, lucky, lucky girl

'Cause things are so much fun when there are two

'Cause things are so much fun when there are two
