I've been a moving target, I've been a sitting duck
I've almost been an alligator's food
And all because somebody with more courage than good sense
Had to be rescued from his own ineptitude

Well [bad word] with not so much to live for
Want to jeapordise their lives maybe that should be allowed
But a prince is born for higher things
And shouldn't risk his life like an ordinary member of the crowd

But Jean-Bob
That's what you do for a friend, oh
That's what you do for a friend
That's what you do for a friend, my friend
That's what you do for a friend

You hang on through the hard times
Make 'em laugh when they're feeling low
And when the danger's near you say
No fear
And you go where you have to go

And you never back down
And you never back out
Fighting even when
You're filled with doubt

That's what you do for a friend, oh
That's what you do for a friend
That's what you do for a friend, my friend
That's what you do for a friend

Zipping into danger, dashing into [bad word] into an untimely end
You foolhardy heroes will end up with your backs
Against a wall in deep trouble once again

Now some may think it noble to die like that
And be immortalised in songs about the past
And you may think it wise to have a harrowing demise
So that's life's exciting right up to the last

But Jean-Bob
That's what you do for a friend, oh
That's what you do for a friend
That's what you do for a friend, my friend
That's what you do for a friend

And you even stick your neck out
No matter how scary it gets
You go out on a limb when the chances are slim
And you do it with no regrets

And you never give up
And you never give in
You keep on trying
Through thick and thin

That's what you do for a friend, oh
That's what you do for a friend
That's what you do for a friend, my friend
That's what you do for a friend
