Be With Me

are you who you look like

or are you just yourself

are you somebody famous

or just somebody else

can you play "Stairway to Heaven"

are you good enough

were those songs real

or did you make them up

I only wanted to shake your hand

equal to equal

man to man

what are you drinking

let me buy you one

you owe me much more

than just a job well done

you're gonna be with me

'till your dying day

and I won't take it lightly

if you just walk away

fetch me the jester

commanded the king

the harder I thrash him

the better he'll sing

send him back to the dungeon

give him something to eat

if it wasn't for me

he'd be out on the street

he's gonna be with me

'till his dying day

I would not take it lightly

If he were ever to stray

if I'm a good boy

mama can I go

to the tent revival

and the medicine show

I hear there's a dancer

I just gotta see

I hear there's a singer

like I want to be

if I were someone

would you take me home

let me look in your closet

let me rattle your bones

are you who you look like

or are you just yourself

are you somebody famous

or just somebody else
