Put friends first
Thanks to camps YMCA Kanawana and Amy Molson for sharing their songbooks.
Put Friends first, to make friends last
On this you can depend,
Thin or thick, you'll be my pick,
You'll always be my friend.
Slap your knees, smile and say cheese,
On this you can depend
Thin or thick, you'll be my pick,
You'll always be my friend.
Clap your hands, Cause I understand,
On this you can depend,
Thin or thick, you'll be my pick,
You’ll always be my friend
Make ‘em snap, through any mishap
On this you can depend,
Through thin or thick, you’ll be my pick
You’ll always be my friend.
Just say Hi! Now don't be shy,
On this you can depend,
Thin or thick, you'll be my pick,
You'll always be my friend.
Put friends first, to make friends last
On this you can depend
Thin or thick, you'll be my pick,
You'll always be my friend. (3 Times)
You’ll always be my friend!
