Paul Kelly - I'm on Your Side Lyrics

You've been crying a long long spell
You've been drinking from the Devil's own well
You're just hanging on to your pride
Hold on to me now
I'm on your side

I'm on your side when you think there's no one
I'm on your side when darkness falls
I'm on your side
All you gotta do is call

The trees on the shoreline are all fresh from the rain
The ship on the water is heading for the main
Open your window, let the good air inside
You don't always know when
There's a change in the tide

I'm on your side when others turn on you
I'm on your side when your back's to the wall
I'm on your side
All you gotta do is call

I'm on your side though you might not believe it
I'm on your side when the shit rains down
I'm on your side
I'm gonna stand your ground, stand your ground
Ooh, call on me, all you gotta do is call
