07/15/2007: "I love this song!"
music: Tracy Lawrence, Tim McGraw, Kenny Chesney -- "Find Out Who Your Friends Are"mood: Grateful.
I just got an amazingly wonderful phone call from Brittany that made my day, and then this song came on my iTunes and I knew I needed to post the lyrics. My life has been so blessed by the people I am lucky enough to be able to call friends; the ways they have each enriched my life are completely mind-blowing. Going along with that, I feel even MORE blessed to know that I have true friends ... best friends ... in many different parts of the world. They are so much a part of who I've been and who I've become, and I am so grateful for that. So ... thank you. You know who you are. And hopefully you know at least some of the ways that you've impacted me, especially within the last couple years. And the program I'm in right now ... wow. That's all I can say ... wow. What a fantastic group of people with so much life and insight! They are people who love life and know exactly who they are and what they want out of it. While I am grateful for all that I've learned through my courses so far, I am even more grateful for the life-long bonds that have already developed.
And that is all for now. I'll stop being mushy. lol
Here are the lyrics.
I'm glad I know who my friends are.
Find Out Who Your Friends Are
Tracy Lawrence, Tim McGraw, Kenny Chesney
Run your car off the side of the road
Get stuck in a ditch way out in the middle of nowhere
Or get yourself in a bind lose the shirt off your back
Need a floor, need a couch, need a bus fare
This is where the rubber meets the road
This is where the cream is gonna rise
This is what you really didn't know
This is where the truth don't lie
You find out who your friends are
Somebody's gonna drop everything
Run out and crank up their car
Hit the gas, get there fast
Never stop to think 'what's in it for me?' or 'it's way too far'
They just show on up with their big old heart
You find out who your friends are
Everybody wants to slap your back
wants to shake your hand
when you're up on top of that mountain
But let one of those rocks give way then you slide back down look up
and see who's around then
This ain't where the road comes to an end
This ain't where the bandwagon stops
This is just one of those times when
A lot of folks jump off
You find out who your friends are
Somebody's gonna drop everything
Run out and crank up their car
Hit the gas, get there fast
Never stop to think 'what's in it for me?' or 'it's way too far'
They just show on up with their big old heart
You find out who your friends are
When the water's high
When the weather's not so fair
When the well runs dry
Who's gonna be there?
You find out who your friends are
Somebody's gonna drop everything
Run out and crank up their car
Hit the gas, get there fast
Never stop to think 'what's in it for me?' or 'it's way too far'
They just show on up with their big old heart
You find out who your friends are
You find out who your friends are
Run your car off the side of the road
Get stuck in a ditch way out in the middle of nowhere
Well man, I've been there
Or get yourself in a bind lose the shirt off your back
Need a floor, need a couch, need a bus fare
Man, I've been there
Man, I've been there
