lyrics

Everybody needs a buddy
Who’s got a sense of how they tick
Everybody needs somebody
Who won’t give them the flick

You’re the bow to my strings, back me up when I sing
And together we can make it through anything
Through thin and thick with you I’ll stick

Everyone needs a tune to hum
When they’re feeling low
Everyone needs a chum
Who’ll come when it’s time to go go go

You’re the rock to my pebble, you’re the bass to my treble
When you bump into me you accompany me
Through thin and thick with you I’ll stick
‘Cause you’re my side kick

Four strings sound so lonesome when nobody plays with me
But when somebody plays along there’s more harmony, you see

Sometimes I get to wondering
as the song’s about to end
Are we each other’s sidekicks
Or are we each other’s friend?

When the odds are stacked up, you’re my back up
You’re a hoot, you’re a gem you’re a total crack-up
Wrongly or rightly in the lineup of likelies
You’re the one I’d pick
to be my sidekick
