If this life should lead you down a lonely road
And you need someone at your side
I'd like to be the one to share your load
The loving arms where you can come and hide

When the world weighs on your shoulders
When your heart is down and blue
And that old Kentucky wind keeps blowing colder
I'll take care of you
[ fiddle - steel ]
I'll take care of you every night and every day
Through the years we'll watch our love grow
Hand in hand together every step along the way
Without a doubt darling you will know

When the world weighs on your shoulders...

When that old Kentucky wind keeps blowing colder
I'll take care of you
