When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes,
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
When tears are in your eyes,
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Well a hard headed woman,
A soft hearted man
Been the cause of trouble
Ever since the world began
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been
A thorn in the side of man
Now Adam told to Eve,
"listen here to me,
Don't you let me catch you
Messin' round that apple tree."
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been
A thorn in the side of man
Now Samson told Delilah
Loud and clear,
"keep your cotton pickin' fingers
Out my curly hair."
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been
A thorn in the side of man
I heard about a king
Who was doin' swell
Till he started playing
With that evil Jezebel
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man.
I got a woman,
A head like a rock
If she ever went away
I'd cry around the clock
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been
A thorn in the side of man
A soft hearted man
Been the cause of trouble
Ever since the world began
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been
A thorn in the side of man
Now Adam told to Eve,
"listen here to me,
Don't you let me catch you
Messin' round that apple tree."
