"Thank You for Being a Friend" written by Andrew M Gold
LYRICS
Thank you for being a friend
Traveled down a road and back again
Your heart is true, you're a pal and a confidant
I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow
And if you threw a party
Invited everyone you knew
Well, you would see the biggest gift would be from me
And the card attached would say
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
If it's a car you lack
I'd surely buy you a Cadillac
Whatever you need, any time of the day or night
I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow
And when we both get older
With walking canes and hair of gray
Have no fear, even though it's hard to hear
I will stand real close and say
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Let me tell you 'bout a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
And when we die and float away
Into the night, the Milky Way
You'll hear me call as we ascend
I'll see you there, then once again
Thank you for being a
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
People, let me tell you 'bout a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
Whoa, tell you 'bout a friend (let me thank you right now for being a friend)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna tell you 'bout a pal and I'll tell you again)
Thank you for being a friend (I wanna thank you, thank you)
Thank you for being a friend - บันเทิง

My man poured a bucket of soul on this song...absolutely loved it.
Your voices are rich like caramel. Your band is crisp like autumn afternoons.
Spectacular analogies! 💥
Stunning groep
This is the ONLY tribute to Betty I've seen today on YT. She deserved it, and you guys are a CLASS ACT for doing it. Thank You.
My sister just told me that she hadn't seen this as part of any tributes. Totally with you! This is the song to do it with!
This was made in nov 2020 but it’s nice they posted it for a tribute
John Mayer did one
Great voices. Seriously, u should be on AGT.
Both vocalist should b in a recording studio.
Search Golden Girls theme bounce
(new orleans)
RIP Betty White and Andrew Gold ❤️❤️
I agree. This is the best version I'd heard since Andrew Gold sang this song 40+ yrs ago.
Don't forget Andrew Gold who started it all in the 70's. He was amazing. I love the bass. Thank you for keeping him alive. Passed away of cancer. You guys are doing a great job doing this. There's more to this than Golden Girls & you nailed it. Thank you so much.
Thank you for being a band! ❤️Betty White.
Both Vulf and LSD putting out a new video in the same minute. Settle down y'all, it's not my birthday! Can't wait for a new LSD album to come out with more Akie vocal work
When Akie Bermiss sings, I feel like I've been to church. 😍
Betty was admired and appreciated all the way, even on the West Coast of Australia. She made the Golden Girls extra special.
Darn it, who's cutting onions. This theme just gets me every time. So many good memories watching that show with friends and family.
This song has always had a smooth groove. Thanks for breathing new life into a great song!!
Can See The Street coexisting in a Rock and Roll Retirement Home together! I wanna Thank You To Lakeside Street for Being OUR FRIENDS! Cheers From Ohio
Love this, love this band, tears of appreciation for Ms. White... RIP
I never ever ever thought I would willingly listen to this song, but of course they do a great job with it.
Great vocals from all of you!
What a wonderful tribute to the passing of Betty White! She will be so missed by her human friends and animal friends alike. 💕❤️
Camera vibin' to the bass, Rachael vibin' to Akie's singing, McDuck vibin' from an undisclosed location, this video has it all!
McDuck left the band
@@totalrobot This video was recorded in November 2020. McDuck did not leave the band until the summer of 2021.
So much nostalgia from that one. Akie got some pipes too, never knew!
Her voice is POWERFUL
Love Rachael’s voice🙌🏽🙌🏽 she has always been one of my top female vocalist. Been a fan from back in the days. Keep up the great music
Love Bridget’s sound on Bass. Great energy and love - G-d bless you all!
I loved the harmony of the vocals
Perfect timing, thanks, as we are all so dependent on the gift of friendship these days. Best Wishes
Smiling from ear to ear.

You guys just earned a new fan!! You are awesome! Love both singers voices so much!
Wonderful tribute, I can’t think of anything more uplifting than this.
This song always had a Todd Rundgren feel to it for me.
But Todd's stuff tends to be more melancholy and wistful, as in "Can We Still Be Friends" …
I always enjoy hearing Ya'll. Oct. is a long wait til Ya'll come out my way. Thanks for all the Great music.
Thank you for being a Band!

When you read these lyrics, it's actually a beautiful, very touching song, and I'm in my feelings over the verses not being more well known. Most of us just know the TV theme song version.

Somebody set the camera on top of the bass monitor, resulting in some (not unpleasant) shaking.
