Someday they'll find your small town world

On a big town avenue

Gonna make you like the way they talk

When they're talking to you

Gonna make you break out of your shell

Cuz they tell you to

Gonna make you like the way they lie

Better than the truth

They'll tell you everthing

You wanted someone else to say

They're gonna break your heart, yeah

From what I've seen

You're just one more hand me down

Cuz no one's tried to give you

What you need

So lay all your troubles down

I am with you now

Somebody oughta take you in

Try to make you love again

Try to make you like the way they feel

When they're under your skin

Never once do you think that they would lie

When they're holding you

Then you wonder why they haven't called

When they said they'd call you

You'll start to wonder

If you're ever gonna make it by

You'll start to think

You were born blind

From what I've seen

You're just one more hand me down

Cuz no one's tried to give you

What you need

So lay all your troubles down

I am with you now

I'm here for the hard times

The straight to your heart times

When living ain't easy

You can stand up against me

And maybe rely on me

And cry on me, yeah

Oh no, no, no

Someday they'll open up your world

Shake you down to the drawing board

Do their best to change you

They still can't erase you

From what I've seen

You're just one more hand me down

Cuz no one's tried to give you

What you need

So lay all your troubles down

I am with you now

Lay them down on me

You're just one more hand me down

And all those nights don't give you

What you need

So lay all your troubles down

On me
