HEY BABY, WON’T YOU BE MY FRIEND

Hey baby, won't you be my friend?
If we start this way, it might never end.
C'mon! I've takin' a shine to you.
We'll walk on down
To the Porter Town Hall,
Swing your partner,
And have a ball.
Hay babe, I want to be friends with you.

Hey babe, won't you be my pal.
If we can hang out, you just may be my gal.
And who knows, I may be the man for you.
You buy me a beer.
I'll buy you two.
You fix my flat.
I'll tie your shoe.
Hey babe, I want to be friends with you.

I don't want to come on too strong,
And I don't want to be used.
I'm not lookin' for a flash of hope in the night.
I want a lover, a lover who can be my friend,
Who could start a love that will not end.

Hey baby, we can talk all night,
No need to sort it out or make it right.
We'll talk about our dreams and fears and blues.
And won't the sun be surprised
When he shows up,
And sees us still here
Laughing it up.
Hey babe, I want be friends with you.
No I ain't afraid, I want to be friends with you.
We just might have it made, I want to be friends with you.
Pass that bottle my way, I want to be friends with you.
