THERE'S ONLY ONE PAL AFTER ALL
(Harold G. Frost / F. Henri Klickmann,   1920)



A pal in need is a pal indeed, 
But there's only one pal life can hold 
To share your schemes and beautiful dreams 
With a heart of purest gold.

The years have flown like the pals I've known, 
And there's only one thing left to do; 
I'll journey back to the rose covered shack
And the pal who's always true.

When the girl pal you knew makes you lonesome and blue, 
And your pathways are drifting apart, 
When the boy pal who'd lend, and who'd stick to the end, 
Only causes an ache in your heart,
When the pal you thought best changes just like the rest, 
Don't forget, when your dream castles fall, 
God gave you one mother and never another, 
There's only one pal after all. 
When the girl pal you knew makes you lonesome and blue 
And your pathways are drifting apart, 
When the boy pal who'd lend, and who'd stick to the end, 
Only causes an ache in your heart, 
When the pal you thought best changes just like the rest, 
Don't forget, when your dream castles fall, 
God gave you one mother and never another,
There's only one pal after all.
