Run your car off the side of the road Get stuck in a ditch way out in the middle of nowhere Or get yourself in a bind lose shirt off your back a floor, need a couch, need a bus fare
This is where the rubber meets the road This is where the cream is gonna rise This is what you really didn't know This is where the truth don't lie
{Chorus} You find out who your are Somebody's gonna drop everything Run out and crank up car Hit the gas, get there fast Never stop to think 'what's in it for me?' or 'it's way too far' They just show on up with their big old heart You find out who your friends are
Everybody wants to slap your wants to shake your hand when you're up on top of that mountain But let one of those rocks way then you slide back down Look up and see who's around then
This ain't where the road comes to an end This ain't where the bandwagon stops This is one of those times when A lot of folks jump off
{Chorus}
When the water's high When the weather's not fair When the well runs dry Who's gonna be there?
{Chorus}
You find out who your friends are (yeah, yeah) You find out who your friends are
Run your car off the side of the road Get stuck in a ditch way out the middle of nowhere (Well man, I've been there) Or get yourself in a bind lose the shirt off your Need a floor, need a couch, need a bus fare (Man, I've been there)
