This old world is full of problems Everyday it gets a couple more Any fool that tries to solve 'em all Has got a lesson or two in store I know 'cause I try myself That's the kind of fool I am All the weight on your shoulders Makes for a short lonely man But let me tell you that the Weight of the world ain't as much as it used to be Sometimes you find something strong you can lean on It happened to me I found a love like I never knew Everything I need I found in you As long as you're with me girl We can handle the weight of the world This old town is full of people Too many people all alone Giving up on the dreams they had Sittin' in their chair at home It's hard not to stay down there Waitin' on a reason why Need to get back up And see the difference it makes when you try You start to notice that the Weight of the world ain't as much as it used to be Sometimesyou find something strong you can lean on It happened to me I found a love like I never knew Everything I need I found in you As long as you're with me girl We can handle the weight of the world It's just the weight of the world It's just The weight of the world It's just the weight of the world
