When you're walking down And there's no pavement on the street You see the light, for it's still calling you Let it go boy, let it be When you're walking down Feeling all screwed up inside Your woman waits and she's still waiting for you Let it go boy, let it ride Wear a fast gun and you'll be all right Through the fight, stand by me Wear a fast gun and you'll live tonight Holding on, take your place and stand by me Holding on, Christian brother stand by me When you're walking down Your eyes are filled with burning rage And it may seem to overpower you Let it go boy, once again Wear a fast gun and you'll be all right Through the fight, stand by me Wear a fast gun and you'll live tonight Holding on, take your place and stand by me Holding on, Christian brother stand by me When you're walking down And there are waves beneath your feet The moment nears, it shakes the heart from you Let it go boy, let it be Wear a fast gun and you'll be all right Through the fight, stand by me Wear a fast gun and you'll live tonight Holding on, take your place and stand by me Holding on, Christian brother stand by me When you're walking down And there's no pavement on the street You see the light, for it's still calling you Let it go boy, let it be Wear a fast gun and you'll be all right Through the fight, stand by me Wear a fast gun and you'll live tonight Holding on, take your place and stand by me Holding on, Christian brother stand by me Abide with me, abide with me Abide with me, abide with me
