Lyrics God Help The Man

I been sittin' out back in the porch swing
It's where I go to think and where I go to sing
Think about what used to be
Sing a song about an old memory
My mama tries to tell me
There'll be a better man down the road
But I’m afraid the love that we let die
Is the only love I’ll ever know

His mind is troubled
His temper's ragin' like a storm at sea
God help the man
Send down an angel
Won't you send down a friend
Someone to walk him through the darkest part
Heal his mind, mend his heart
'Cause I’ve done everything that I can
So I’m beggin' you
God help the man

Everybody's telling me
He's just a drunken soul I need to set myself free
They don't seem to understand
For fourteen years he's been all that I am
My heart says stand by your man
My head says don't let him hurt you again
Is this love worth what he's putting me through
Should I hold on or start my life anew

If you can
Reach down and lend a hand
God help the man
