There are friends, there are acquaintances 
 But who you gonna call at four in the morn 
 Like a friend who will hang out 
 Down at the waffle house 
 When you're trying to sober up from the night before 
    Everybody needs a friend like that 
 One to share his last six pack 
 A friend will be there forever more   
 You need someone who can make you shake the blues 
 Brother to brother a friends through and through 
 Someone to talk to when you don't know what to do 
 Someone who take a bullet for you   
 It's last call start fight with the whole damn bar 
 And you got my back even though you know were gonna lose 
 I use my one phone call down at the county jail 
 Cause i know i can count on you to come and pay my bail   
 Everybody needs a friend like that 
 One to share his last six pack 
 A friend will be there forever more   
 You need someone who can make you shake the blues 
 Brother to brother a friends through and through 
 Someone to talk to when you don't know what to do 
 Someone who take a bullet for you
