Lyrics with pictures


 I can tell we got an awful lot in common I can tell we got an awful lot in common
Even though we look as different as can be
We don't even have to try
To see things eye to eye
It just comes to us naturally
Come to think of it
I think we fit together
Playing cat and mouse won't get us very far
There's no need to feud and fuss
When it isn't really us
Let's you and me
Be who we are

We're a duo
A duo, A pair of lonely onesA duo, a pair of lonely ones
Who were meant to be a two-o
A duo
It's true-o
Wherever we go
We're going me and you
Oh, no matter what
Now we've got one another
We'll be there to pick each other off the floorWe'll be there to pick each other off the floor
Any time you're feeling glum
Count on me to be your chumCount on me to be your chum
If you get an itch attack
I'll be there to scratch your back
Now who could ever ask for more TIGER [speaking]: Oh oh oh, stop! Oh, stop! No! Don't! Don't stop! More! More! FIEVEL MOUSEKEWITZ AND TIGER [singing]: We're friends and that's what friends are for
We're a duo
A duo
A pair of lonely ones
Who were meant to be a two-o
A duo
It's true-o
If we're ever in a stew
We know we can make it through
Cause you've got me
And I got
Your
Yes, sir!
