CHORUS:
You gave me a present
No box -- no ribbon
(It's the best
present ever)
And I'm not
fibbin'
I wouldn't trade
it for anything-never, no, never!
Your friendship
is the best present ever
Your friendship
is the best present ever
It's better than
A brand-new
bike
A brand-new
toy
A big balloon
Filled up with
joy
A hat, a bat
A this or that
A plane, a train
A dog or cat
It's better than
Ice cream
Whipped cream
Banana splits
French fries
Pizza
Airplane kits
A root beer
float
With a fantastic
fizz
Why is it better?
I don't know
- it just is
Better than a
Truck or car
Or big guitar
A trip to the moon
or a distant star
A sled, a bed
A boomerang
Better than
Just about anything
All the fun things
that we do
Wouldn't be as fun
If it wasn't for you
I guess you know
I like you a lot
Your friendship is the best present
I ever got!
CHORUS:
Richard M. Sherman and Robert B.
