You Got a Friend in Me的詞曲作者是史蒂夫·艾弗蘭德（Steve Vai），以下是歌曲的詞曲：
Verse 1:
I'm a dreamer, I'm a schemer
I'm a guy who knows where he's heading
I'm a believer, I'm a believer
I'm a guy who knows what he's looking for
Chorus:
And when it's hard to make a friend
I know you got a friend in me
No matter how high, how far or wide
I know you got a friend in me
Verse 2:
I may change, I may wander
But I'll always keep you close in my heart
I may wander, I may wander
But I know you'll always be there for me
Chorus:
And when it's hard to make a friend
I know you got a friend in me
No matter how far, how fast or how high
I know you got a friend in me
Bridge:
I may take my time, I may rush too soon
But I'll always listen to you
I may let you down, I may run and hide
But I know you got a friend in me
Chorus:
And when it's hard to make a friend
I know you got a friend in me
No matter what the world might bring
I know you got a friend in me
Verse 3:
There's a million faces, a million places
A million ways to find my place
But there's one thing I know for sure
That when I look up to the sky above
You got a friend in me...
You got a friend in me...
You got a friend in me...
Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...
Yeah...
Yeah...
(Chorus)
Outro:
Oh yeah, you got a friend in me.
Yeah, you got a friend in me.
Yeah, you got a friend in me.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
