When I was young
Before I grew
Back when friends were friends forever
And the skies were always blue
When I was small
Two-feet tall
The only woman in my life
Was the angel I called "Mom"
Oh, it gets hard
And it goes fast
But I know that you'd pick up
No questions asked
If they told me I ain't making bail
Got one phone call from county jail
I'd call, I'd call for you
If my bus broke down in Devil's Pass
I'd walk until my legs collapsed
I'd crawl, I'd crawl to you
The world is full of hands
That hold you when it's worth it
But you gave me a chance
When they thought I was worthless
So when I fall like I do
I'll call for you
Now I'm old
Well, old enough
To know my friends are not my brothers
And the world can really suck
When it rains
It seems to pour
But you're always there with dry clothes
When I show up at your door
'Cause it gets hard
And it goes fast
But I know that you'd pick up
No questions asked
If they told me I ain't making bail
Got one phone call from county jail
I'd call, I'd call for you
If my bus broke down in Devil's Pass
I'd walk until my legs collapsed
I'd crawl, I'd crawl to you
The world is full of hands
That hold you when it's worth it
But you gave me a chance
When they thought I was worthless
So when I fall like I do
I'll call for you
Yeah, I'll call for you
Yeah, I'll call for you
Yeah, I'll call for you
If I lost my life at twenty-three
You'll hear me through those cedar trees
I'll call, I'll call for you
And it won't fix a broken heart
But know that every decent part of me
Was all from you
The world is full of hands
That hold you when it's worth it
But you gave me a chance
When they thought I was worthless
So when I fall like I do
I'll call for you
I'll call for you
