"Friendship Song" Lyrics
Let's all
join hands in friendship,
For everyone to see. Remember that a stranger,
Is just a friend to be.
Hold fast our hands in friendship,
For many years to come.
This friendship ring will always bring,
Good fun for everyone.

Bringing friends together in the Northwest Suburbs of Chicago
since 1973. |
