Be There For Me Baby

Ev'ry morning I go scratch for the almighty buck

I dream the American dream

But it don't seem to change my luck

It gets downright depressing

It wears the sole down to the bone

I don't thank that I could make it

If I had to make it alone

Oh, be there for me baby

Come sunup or sundown

And when the winter wind's whistling at the window

Together we can hold out ground

The secret to survivin'

Is dividin' the burden in two

So, be there for me baby

And I'll be there for you

I know you expected more out of this life than bills

and a broom

But that's all you're getting' from the man

You were betting had hung the moon

But love makes compensation

And it's enough to see us through

It's too bad we're not in the money

Oh, but we got me and you

Oh, be there for me baby

Come sunup or sundown

And when the winter wind's whistling at the window

Together we can hold out ground

The secret to survivin'

Is dividin' the burden in two

So, be there for me baby

And I'll be there for you
