When you're walking down
And there's no pavement on the street
You see the light for it's still calling you
Let it go boy -- let it be
When you're walking down
Feeling all screwed up inside
Your woman waits oh! how she'll weep for you
Let it go boy -- let it ride
Wear a fast gun and you'll be alright
Through the fight stand by me
Wear a fast gun, and you'll live tonight.
Holding on -- Holding on
Save the Christian stand by me
When you're walking down
Your eyes are filled with burning rain
And if they seem to overpower you
Let me know boy -- once again
Wear a fast gun and you'll be alright
Through the fight stand by me
Wear a fast gun and you'll live tonight
Holding on -- Holding on
Take your place to stand by me
Holding on
Christian brother stand by me
When you're walking down
The earth still waves beneath your feet
The moment nears - it shakes the heart from you
Let it show boy -- let it be
And there's no pavement on the street
You see the light for it's still calling you
Let it go boy -- let it be
When you're walking down
Feeling all screwed up inside
Your woman waits oh! how she'll weep for you
Let it go boy -- let it ride
Wear a fast gun and you'll be alright
Through the fight stand by me
Wear a fast gun, and you'll live tonight.
Holding on -- Holding on
Save the Christian stand by me
When you're walking down
Your eyes are filled with burning rain
And if they seem to overpower you
Let me know boy -- once again
Wear a fast gun and you'll be alright
Through the fight stand by me
Wear a fast gun and you'll live tonight
Holding on -- Holding on
Take your place to stand by me
Holding on
Christian brother stand by me
When you're walking down
The earth still waves beneath your feet
The moment nears - it shakes the heart from you
Let it show boy -- let it be
