Friendship
- written by Cole Porter
- from the 1940 Broadway musical "DuBarry Was A Lady"
- the following lyrics were transcribed from a recording by Judy Garland
  and Johnny Mercer made on December 18, 1940.

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

Both: It's friendship, friendship
      Just a perfect blendship
      When other friendships have been forgot
      Ours will still be hot
JG: a-lottle-dottle-dottle-dig-dig-dig

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

Both: It's friendship, friendship
      Just a perfect blendship
      When other friendships have been forgate (JM: gate?)
      Ours will still be great
JM: a-lottle-dottle-dottle-chuck-chuck-chuck

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

Both: It's friendship, friendship
      Just a perfect blendship
      When other friendships have been forgit
      Ours will still be it
JG: a-lottle-dottle-dottle-hep-hep-hep

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

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

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