Standard (EADGBE)

Some of my very best friends are furry

 Some bark a little bit and some are purry

 And I'd love to share a sarsaparilla

 With a good-natured goat or a friendly gorilla.

 And I find there's always quite a bit one can learn

 From an elephant - in other words, pachyderm

 And you'd have to look long and look hard

 To find a pal as saintly as your nearest Saint Bernard

When you embark on your next nature study

 Remember that you might meet a budding best buddy

 With a tail, she won't fail

 To be a friend to the end

Chorus

 If you need a hand when you're down or blue

 Then a helpful paw may just comfort you.

 Feathers, fins, or fur, when you're feeling sad

 Nothing cheers you up like a critter comrade!

If you are bored, then why not make a bee line

 For the nearest seal or your local sea lion?

 Or, why not ask a tiger out to tea?

 I say, "Excuse me Miss Tiger, is that one lump or three?"

 And I find that beavers do make mighty good chums

 They can chew your ear off, but they get a lot done

 With their tails, they won't fail

 To be friends to the end

Chorus
