In the blood, in the bread, inside your head
I was there on the morn, the day you were born
In your Oklahoma brogue, in the way your cowlick grows, I will be there everywhere you go

In the tales that you tell, I can see myself
In the old photographs, in the way you laugh
Now that you have grown, you're still my flesh and bone
And I will be there everywhere you go

When you ain't got a single penny, don't know what you're gonna do
I've been there too, and I made it through
When you're lonely in the city, staring at the moon
I'll be there, too, I'll be there, too

When I'm old, when I'm gone, and you carry on
In the air, in a song, in the way you walk
The wrinkles in your nose, in the way you curl your toes,
I will be there everywhere you go

When you ain't got a single penny, don't know what you're gonna do
I've been there too, and I made it through
When you're lonely in the city, staring at the moon
I'll be there, too, I'll be there, too

When you ain't got a single penny, don't know what you're gonna do
I've been there too, and I made it through
When you're lonely in the city, staring at the moon
I'll be there, too, I'll be there, too
