It seems like years and a million tears Since you've left the old hometown Now you've changed they say and the great white way Is your new stomping ground Well, it's plain to see you've forgotten me Cause you never write or call But I'll be around when they let you down And I'll catch you when you fall Well, I'll catch you when you fall There's no one else but you Now, you're riding high but honey by and by You're gonna cry for love that's true And when you're uptown, baby Starts giving you the stall Well, I'll be around when they let you down And I'll catch you when you fall Well, they've turned your head 'cause I've heard it said You're ashamed of us back home But I'll bet the sound of a southern bound Still chills you to the bone With your haughty pose and your uptown clothes You aren't fooling me at all When you're feeling bad this ol' country lad Is gonna catch you you fall Well, I'll catch you when you fall There's no one else but you Now, you're riding high but honey by and by You're gonna cry for love that's true And when you're uptown, baby Starts giving you the stall Well, I'll be around when they let you down And I'll catch you when you fall Well, I'll catch you when you fall There's no one else but you Now, you're riding high but honey by and by You're gonna cry for love that's true And when you're uptown, baby Starts giving you the stall Well, I'll be around when they let you down And I'll catch you when you fall Well, I'll be around when they let you down And I'll catch you when you fall
