Songs from iPhone to iTunes?

I took songs from my friends computer and put them onto my iphone without setting it up under her account. I want to put the songs on my phone onto my computer because my library is empty but i can't seem to do that without "erase and sync". But then won't that erase all my songs without putting it on my computer?

You can't do it at all. You can only sync to an Apple device, not from it. This has been a basic feature of iPods for years, but for some reason the owners of these devices still don't get it.

Have you considered just copying the files from that other computer to a flash drive and from their to your computer? You can just import into your own iTunes as if they were your songs. This would avoid all those erase and sync problems that all of you iPhone owners seem to get yourselves into.

However, I still have all of the songs on my iPhone and I was wondering if there was a free yet efficient way to transfer all of my songs from my phone to iTunes again. I have the 4s, if that will help any.
