Intro

Everybody needs a friend (x2)

One who won't pretend (x2)

A friend to the end (x2)

Trinidad and Tobago to Jamaica, Choc'late Queen Ifrica

Everybody needs a friend (x2)

One who won't pretend (x2)

A friend to the end (x2)

A once in a lifetime

Chorus

I'm looking for a friend

A friend who won't pretend

A friend to last the end of a lifetime

Friend, everybody needs a friend

On whom you can depend

A friendship to last the end of a lifetime

Verse (Choc'late)

I need a friend that I can trust

Sharing secrets is a must

And when together there's no fuss

That's a friend

Us, nobody could ever come between

When down, each other's shoulders, we can lean

A friend that will always be there for me

To climb every mountain and swim any sea

Rept chorus

Verse (Queen Ifrica)

Is there anyone to take away the pain I feel?

Will I ever get to eat a decent meal?

All my life I've been trotting alone

Would you lend me your room?

I need a place to rest my bones

I wish I had a family

Is there any hope for me?

Take a chance and open the doors to your heart

Let me in, let's begin

Tell dem nuh Choc'late

Verse (Choc'late)

I need a friend who is sincere

Whose heart is filled with love and care

One, who is always there,

That's a friend

When we sitting by de' bay, all chubby, chubby

You know that I'm feeling extra lucky

That I have a friend who understands, one I can relate to

Growing up together talking bout' the things we've been through

Rept chorus

Verse (Queen Ifrica)

Catch me when I fall

Answer to my call

Never let me down

Say you're always gonna be around

Take my hand, friendship begins

Good to show love, that's what the father told us

Never turn your back on someone when they need you the most

Always remember to be, as loving and caring as you can be

BRIDGE (Choc'late)

Us, nobody could ever come between

When down each other's shoulders, we can lean

A friend that will always be there for me

To climb every mountain and swim any sea

Rept chorus
