They said I'd never make it, they said I would not last, they said I'd never get away from my past, they said I would not last my day, they said I'd be right back, but here I am still with you Lord and I wonder where they're at. Oh you and me Jesus we sure fooled them all, they just thought they knew for sure that I was gonna fall. I'm sure far from perfect as you can plainly see. But after all these years Oh Lord! It's still you and me. My friends they all did leave me, they hung me out to dry, sometimes I get so lonesome Lord, I just hang my head and cry. I guess they thought they'd showed me and I guess they had their fun, but it really doesn't matter much cause you're still number one. Oh you and me Jesus we sure fooled them all, they just thought they knew for sure I was gonna fall. I'm sure far from perfect as you can plainly see, but after all these years Oh Lord! It's still you and me.
