In My Time of Need

And I’ll let your smile just off and carry me
And the dust just settles right there on the feed
'Cause I will come for you, when my days are through
And I’ll let your smile just off and carry me

I work these hands to bleed 'cause I got mouths to feed

'Cause I will comfort you when my days are through
Lord we married young and stayed where we came from
When everyone would offer up a hand
When the sky can’t offer none to me

And I’ll let your smile just off and carry me
Will you say to me little rains gonna come
'Cause I will come for you, when my days are through
'Cause when the calm comes down, I take the truck on into town
'Cause I will come for you, when my days are through
Gave those children everything we had
When the sky can’t offer none to me
These old bones are worn, I’ve grown tiresome
When the sky can’t offer none to me

Will you stay with me, in my time of need?
And I got fifteen dollars hid above the stove
Will you comfort me in my time of need?
'Cause it ain’t like it was on back in those days
Will you say to me little rains gonna come
Will you say to me little rains gonna come
And buy whatever we can’t seem to grow
'Cause when we need it most, there’s no rain at all

And I know my time is surely gonna come
Can you take away the pain of hurtful deeds?
Though it seems we had such little time for us
