Lyrics

Emmy was one of the secretaries who shared my office space
The spring that I was traveling around couldn't settle any place
She never got a special degree she had a lot to say
She knew that friendship had nothing to do with the way you earn your pay

Emmy Emmy thanks for all the time you gave for free

Sitting alone at my desk today I could swear I heard
One of the things she said to me I remember every word
Somewhere she learned the lessons of life she passed them on to me
She didn't hang a shingle out she never charged a fee

Emmy Emmy thanks for all the words you gave to me

Emmy stands for the hundreds of friends who've helped me down my road
Hers were two of many hands that helped to share the load
I wish I remembered all their names I would send my thanks
I can't so I'll pass her care along love doesn't keep in banks

Emmy Emmy thanks for all the love you gave to me

Some people seek friends for fortune and fame
Some people seek friends for their name
I've always found friendship through honesty and was grateful when it came

Emmy Emmy thanks for all the love you gave me
Emmy Emmy if you hear this song please remember me...
