C'mon Kid - Dave Hause

It seems like you’re doing better these days

Even though things are falling apart

I know it’s brutal working minimum wage

It’s like you’re finished before you start

Things got ugly for a while back there

I know I thought that you wouldn’t pull through

Late at night when the phone would ring

There’s no telling what you would do

Sometimes we’d yell and act mad as hell

Sometimes we’d act like we didn’t care

Some of our love was just suffocating

It left you turning blue and gasping for air

C’mon kid, c’mon, it’s one foot and then the other

Everybody needs a hand sometimes, everybody needs a brother

Well c’mon kid, c’mon, I’m reaching out to you

Get out of bed kid, face the world, and show us what you can do

I’m sorry I was always casting stones

Like my glass house couldn’t be smashed

I spent as many nights as wild as a lion

I was lucky that I never crashed

Look, I’ve never really been no angel

I see a lot of myself in you

This little town can feel a lot like prison and angry young men

Angry young men always have something to prove

Always have something to prove

C’mon kid, c’mon, it’s one foot and then the other

Everybody needs a hand sometimes, everybody needs a brother

Well c’mon kid, c’mon, I’m reaching out to you

Get out of bed kid, face the world, and show us what you can do

I know you ended up with bills to pay

I know she promised you that she would stay

I know they told you he died for your sins and he’s the only way

I know it caught you by surprise

I got a call that you almost died

Second chances are a crime to waste

So don’t let time decide

Don’t let time decide

C’mon kid, c’mon, it’s one foot and then the other

Everybody needs a hand sometimes, everybody needs a brother

C’mon kid, c’mon, I’m reaching out to you

Get out of bed kid, face the world, show us what you can do

C’mon kid, c’mon

C’mon kid, c’mon

C’mon kid, c’mon

C’mon kid, c’mon

And show us what you can do

C’mon kid, c’mon

C’mon kid, c’mon

C’mon kid, c’mon

C’mon kid, c’mon

And show us what you can do
