Hey

Here's to us

Who's like us?

Damn few

Hey old friend

Are you okay, old friend?

What do you say, old friend?

Are we or are we unique?

Time goes by, everything else keeps changing

You and I, we get continued next week

Most friends fade

Or they don't make the grade

New ones are quickly made

And in a pinch, sure they'll do

But us, old friend

What's to discuss, old friend?

Here's to us

Who's like us

Damn few

So old friend

Fill me in slow, old friend

Start from hello, old friend

I want the when, where, and how

Old friends, do tend to become old habit

Never knew how much I missed you 'til now

Most friends fade

Or they don't make the grade

New ones are quickly made

Some of them worth something too

But us old friends

What's to discuss, old friends?

Tell you something

Good friends point out your lies

Whereas old friends live and let live

Good friends like and advise

Whereas old friends love and forgive

And old friends let you go your own way

Help you find your own way

Let you off when you're wrong

If you're wrong

When you're wrong

Right or wrong

The point is, old friends shouldn't care if you're wrong

Should, but not for too long

What's too long?

If you're wrong

When you're wrong

The thing is old friends do leave their brands on you

But old friends shouldn't compete

Old friends don't make demands on you

Should make demands on you

Well, don't make demands you can't meet

Well, what's the point of demands you can meet?

Well, there's a time for demands, whether you'll meet them or not

No, you are never wrong, never

If you were right, I'd be the first to admit it

Back in Chicago in December 1954

Guys, fellas, boys, buddies, c'mon

Argh!

Hey, old friends

How do we stay, old friends?

Who is to say, old friends?

How an old friendship survives?

One day chums having a laugh a minute

One day comes and they're part of your lives

New friends pour through the revolving door

Maybe there's one that's more, if you find one that'll do

But us, old friends

What's to discuss, old friends?

Here's to us

Who's like us

Two old friends

Fewer won't do, old friends

Gotta have two old friends

Helping you balance along

One upbraids you for your faults and fancies

One persuades you

That the other one's wrong

Most friends fade

Or they don't make the grade

New ones are quickly made

Perfect as long as they're new

But us old friends

What's to discuss old friends?

Here's to us

Who's like us

Damn few
