Michael Row Your Boat Ashore


Thank you for being a friend
Traveled down the road and back again
your heart is true you're a pal and a confidant

I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow

And if you threw a party
Invited everyone you knew
You would see, the biggest gift would be for me
and the card attached would say,
Thank you for being a friend

Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend

If it's a car you lack
I'd surely buy you a Cadillac
Whatever you need, anytime of the day or night

I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow

And when we both get older
With walking canes and hair of gray
Have no fear, even though it's hardly here
I will stand real close and say,
Thank you for being a friend

(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Let me tell you bout a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend

And when we die, and float away
I'll see you there, and once again
Thank you for being a

Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
Whoa, tell you about a friend
(Thank you right now, for being a friend)
Thank you for being a friend
(I wanna tell you right now, and tell you again)
Thank you for being a friend
(I wanna thank you, thank you, for being a friend)
Thank you for being a friend



Oh Michael Vick, what a lesson you have learned over the course of this week. Thanks to all your "friends" your legal options have now dwindled down to 6 months or rape of 2 years of rape.


And despite all the funny jokes that can be made, a serious lesson can be gathered from everything that has gone on his life. When it all comes down to it, who can you really trust to have your back no matter what?


Honestly, think about the people in your own life. Who would you spend 10 extra years in prison for in order to not sell them out like Vick's "friends" did?


Who would you be willing to endure 3,650 days, 10950 meals, 87,600 hours, and probably a thousand rapes for when it all came down it it? Especially if your friend was indeed a criminal as Michael Vick is. This is not a case of protecting the innocent. It's a friendship and creed issue. I honestly don't think there are that many people I know who if they committed criminal acts I would spend 10 years in jail for to help them out.


When does a person's own future trump that of their friends in these criminal situations? I suppose it's a matter of how truly much you care about the person and how much they really care about you. Vick's friends obviously did not have such a deep bond with the running QB they could not sell him out to the prosecutors which is not surprising. I do not think that I would spend an extra minute in jail for someone that A) was going down anyway B) tried to sell you out by saying he was never involved C) was evidently never close enough to them to make a deep friendship impact. There is suppose to be honor amongst thieves, but why uphold that honor for someone who doesn't believe in it.


Good luck ever getting back into the NFL if you ever step foot in a penitentiary Michael. Good luck with any team being willing to touch you with a ten foot poll. Just imagine that press conference with him being announced as being signed to anyone. Pandemonium. This story is dead, Vick is screwed. Let's get ready for some football.
