“Shout out to my Friends”

Shout Out to My Friends

© Larry Krone 2018

 

I’d like to send a shout out to my friends if you’ll let me

To let you know how I appreciate how you get me

I know that you’ll be with me to the end and won’t forget me

I’d like to send a shout out to my friends

 

I couldn’t have predicted when me met how I’d need you

Or how much I would love to entertain and to feed you

You are my beginning and my end, I repeat to you

I’d like to send a shout out to my friends

 

I didn’t know when I took that job or went out to that bar

That here today the ones I met would still be where you are

Running round together as my on the town cohort

Or being there to listen when I need your support

There are those of you who I admit have been a big surprise

And what a great surprise to find a new friend in disguise

Some of you have moved away, and some of you have died

But you’re the ones who’ve taught me that true friendship stays alive

 

I’d like to send a shout out to my friends, my heroes

You may not be blood relatives. I love you as dear, though

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you for being here, so

I shout out I love you, my friends.
