"True Friends" —Mary Jo, 10

 

True friends aren’t one minute friends
They’re friends for an hour or a lifetime
They don’t make fun of your shoes or clothes
If they do, they’re just not friends of mine

 

True friends really get who you are
They make you laugh, they make you smile
True friends aren’t one minute friends
Yes, they’ll be around for a while

 

True friends don’t make fun of you
They help you through the tough times
They like the things that you choose
And stand up by your side

 

True friends really get who you are
They make you laugh, they make you smile
True friends aren’t one minute friends
Yes, they’ll be around for a while

 

It’s not always easy
To do what you gotta do
To have a true friend
You have to be a true friend too

 

True friends really get who you are
They make you laugh, they make you smile
True friends aren’t one minute friends
Yes, they’ll be around for a while

 

True friends really get who you are (It’s not always easy)
They make you laugh, they make you smile (To do what you gotta do)
True friends aren’t one minute friends (To have a true friend)
Yes, they’ll be around for a while (You have to be a true friend too)

 

True friends really get who you are (It’s not always easy)
They make you laugh, they make you smile (To do what you gotta do)
True friends aren’t one minute friends (To have a true friend)
Yes, they’ll be around for a while (You have to be a true friend too)
