When I'm in trouble You stand by me When I see double You stand by me You take my side Against those who lied You take my side Gimme back my pride
When I been losing You stand by me When I been boozin' You stand by me You take my side Against those who lied You take my side Gimme back my pride
I suppose I could make it all my own I know I'd arrive all skin and all bone You are the strongest back I've ever known You carried me, carried me, carried me You carried me home
When I'm crying You stand by me When I am dying You stand by me
