find out who your friends are

Sunday, August 7th, 2016

Run your car off the side of the road
Get stuck in a ditch way out in the middle of nowhere.
Or get yourself in a bind, lose the shirt off your back
Need a floor, need a couch, need a bus fare

This is where the rubber meets the road
This is where the cream is gonna rise
This is what you really didn’t know
This is where the truth don’t lie

You find out who your friends are
Somebody’s gonna drop everything
Run out and crank up their car
Hit the gas, get their fast
Never stop to think ‘what’s in it for me?’ or ‘it’s way too far.’
They just show on up with their big old heart
You find out who you’re friends are

Everybody wants to slap your back
Wants to shake your hand
When you’re up on top of that mountain.
But let one of those rocks give way then you slide back down look up
And see who’s around then

This ain’t where the road comes to an end
This ain’t where the bandwagon stops
This is just one of those times when
A lot of folks jump off

You find out who your friends are
Somebody’s gonna drop everything
Run out and crank up their car
Hit the gas, get there fast
Never stop to think ‘what’s in it for me?’ or ‘it’s way too far.’
They just show on up with that big old heart
You find out who you’re friends are

When the water’s high,
When the weather’s not so fair,
When the well runs dry,
Who’s gonna be there?

You find out who your friends are
Somebody’s gonna drop everything
Run out and crank up their car
Hit the gas, get there fast
Never stop to think ‘what’s in it for me?’ or ‘it’s way too far.’
They just show on up with their big old heart
You find out who you’re friends are,
You find out who you’re friends are

Run your car off the side of the road
Get stuck in a ditch way out in the middle of nowhere.
Oh man I’ve been there.
Or get yourself in a bind, lose the shirt off your back
Need a floor, need a couch, need a bus fare
Man I’ve been there
Man I’ve been there

the tin man

Sunday, February 8th, 2009

Saw a man in the movies
That didn’t have a heart
How I wish I could give him mine
Then I wouldn’t have to feel
It breaking all apart
And this emptiness inside
Would suit me fine

It’s times like these
I wish I were the tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted
And I’d never even know
I’d give anything
Just to be the tin man
And I wouldn’t have a heart
And I wouldn’t need a soul

I couldn’t see your leavin’ coming,
You took me by surprise
Even now still seems like a dream
But I know I can’t be dreamin’
‘Cause as I lay down each night
The pain’s so great
That it won’t let me sleep

It’s times like these
I wish I were the tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted
I’d never even know
Well, I’d give anything
Just to be the tin man
And I wouldn’t have a heart
And I wouldn’t need a soul

Well, I’d give anything
Just to be the tin man
And I wouldn’t have a heart
And I wouldn’t miss you so
