I met this man about a week ago
He said, "Son, don't you know
That we're all doomed?
So I turned and asked, "Mr. what do you mean?"
He said, "Son, take a seat
'Cause here's the truth"
I get high when I feel low
I'm real rich, but I'm real broke
Tryna find someone to hold me together
I get lost but never found
Reach the stars and hit the ground
This ole life has knocked me down
Down forever
So I turned and said, "Mr., I feel your pain
Truth is I've hurt the same
I know what it's like"
He looked at me, said, "Boy, what do you mean?"
So I went and took his seat
And he took mine
I been high and I been low
I ain't rich but I ain't broke
Pray I'd find someone to hold me together
I was lost, but I was found
When my knees hit the ground
And I laid all my troubles down
Down forever
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh
Three years went by when I saw him again
I said, "Sir, how's it been?"
And he just smiled
I been high and I been low
I ain't rich but I ain't broke
Pray I'd find someone to hold me together
I was lost, but I was found
When Jesus turned my life around
And I laid all my troubles down
Down forever
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh
