In My Time of Need

Will you comfort me in my time of need

Can you take away the pain of a hurtful deed

Cause when we need it most there's no rain at all

And the dust just settles right there on the feed

Will you say to me a little rain's gonna come

When the sky can't offer none to me

Cause I will come for you

When my days are through

And I'll let your smile just off and carry me

Cause when the calm comes down

I take the truck into town

And buy whatever we can't seem to grow

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

And I got 15 dollars hid above the stove

Will you say to me a little rain's gonna come

When the sky can't offer none to me

Cause I will come for you

When my days are through

And I'll let your smile just off and carry me

Cause it ain't like it was on back in those days

When everyone would offer up a hand

These old bones are worn

I've grown tired some

And I know my time is surely gonna come

Will you comfort me in my time of need

Can you take away the pain of hurtful deeds

Cause I will comfort you when my days are through

And I'll let your smile just off and carry me

Lord we married young and stayed where we came from

And gave those children everything we had

Will you stay with me in my time of need

Though it seems we had such little time for us

Will you say to me a little rain's gonna come

When the sky can't offer none to me

Cause I will come for you

When my days are through

And I'll let your smile just off and carry me
