Ben

Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
I interviewed you on the phone
I'll never be alone
And, my friend, number forty-three
You've got a friend in me
(You've got a friend in me)
Ben, you should be running here and there
That hurt ankle means you won't be running anywhere
If you ever want to get away and don't have a place to stay
There's something you should know
You've got a place to go
(You've got a place to go)
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us," now it's "we"
(I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us," now it's "we")
The SEC made you a tough fighter
Now you're my little Auburn Tiger
The others don't see you as I do
A Pro Bowler in a year or two
I'm sure they'd like a mulligan
But I just like a friend like Ben
(A friend) like Ben
(A friend) like Ben
