Friendship Words and music by Cole Porter Midi Sequence by: Eugene Hayek Introduced in the 1940 Broadway musical DuBarry Was A Lady Lyrics as recorded by Judy Garland and Johnny Mercer December 18, 1940 on Decca 3165 Thanks for the lyrics, Sally!

If you're ever in a jam, here I am
If you're ever in a mess, S.O.S.
If you ever feel so happy you land in jail, I'm your bail

It's friendship, friendship
Just a perfect blendship
When other friendships have been forgot
Ours will still be hot

A-lottle-dottle-dottle-dig-dig-dig
If you're ever down a well, ring my bell
And if you're ever up a tree just phone to me
A-yes-sir-ee
If you ever lose your teeth and you're out to dine, borrow mine

It's friendship, friendship
Just a perfect blendship
When other friendships have been forgate
Gate?

Ours will still be great

A-lottle-dottle-dottle-chuck-chuck-chuck

If they ever black your eyes, put me wise
If they ever cook your goose, turn me loose
And if they ever put a bullet through your brain, I'll complain

It's friendship, friendship
Just a perfect blendship
When other friendships have been forgit
Ours will still be it

A-lottle-dottle-dottle-hep-hep-hep

If you ever lose your mind, I'll be kind
And if you ever lose your shirt, I'll be hurt
If you're ever in a mill and get sawed in half, I won't laugh

It's friendship, friendship
Just a perfect blendship
When other friendships are up the crick
Ours will still be slick

A-lottle-dottle-dottle-woof-woof-woof
hep-hep-hep
a-chuck-chuck-chuck
a-dig-dig-dig
Good evening friends!
