That’s Alright

After all these years your mom still makes you mad.
She brings up stuff that always makes you sad.
You say your brother always picks on you.
That sibling thing, it’s sometimes hard to do.
Your friends don’t always take your side.
They talk behind your back.
But I’ll stay with you, and get you through
And let you have some slack…when you’re uptight.
Babe, that’s alright.

That place you work is driving you insane.
They give you all the credit, then all the blame.
They ask a lot, and then they ask for more.
But everyone’s got limits, that’s for sure.
But you can always count on me
To stay there for the fight.
And when somebody brings you down
I’m there to pick you up…day or night.
Babe, that’s alright.

Sometimes you say you’d rather be alone.
Sometimes I call, you don’t pick up the phone.
But sometimes when you flash that sweet girl smile.
And then there’s just no need to reconcile.
‘Cause you’re the one who makes life fun along this bumpy road
And you can always count on me to lighten up your load
With all my might.
Babe, that’s alright.
