Oh, my soul, sometimes we don't know what to do

We work so hard being tough on our own

But now it's me and you

Let's give it up, sad bones

'Cause we are following hard times

But you don't have to stand up all alone

Just put your hand in mine



Chorus

Climb on a back that's strong

Yeah, you can get what you want

Climb on a back that's strong



If you could save me a place in heaven

With a clean well-lighted room

I'd muscle up to Armageddon

And wave to you darling, be home soon

If you could show me the story of love

I would write it again and again

And then you could be the woman you need

If you would just let me be the man that I am



Oh, I don't know

Sometimes we try too hard to see

But we've got one down and one more to go

That's when you say to me



Chorus
