Honey Would You Stand By Me
Kenny Chesney · Original Album Classics [2010]
Honey, would you stand by me?
If I bought a little cabin on a mountainside
Honey, would you stand by me?
Would you be my one true friend?
Stick with me through thick and thin
If the roof was old and the rain came in
Honey, would you stand by me?
--- Instrumental ---
If I tried my luck in Hollywood
Honey, would you stand by me?
If my break never came like I thought it would
Honey, would you stand by me?
Would you be my heart of gold?
And never complain when the money was low
If your coat was thin and your shoes were old
Honey, would you stand by me?
--- Instrumental ---
And if I joined up with the rodeo
Honey, would you stand by me?
If we traveled around from show to show
Honey, would you stand by me?
Would you be a cowboy's dream?
And smile right on when times got lean
If you didn't have nothin' but boots and jeans
Honey, would you stand by me?
Honey, would you stand
Honey, would you stand by me?
Honey, would you stand
Honey, would you stand by me?
Honey, would you stand
Honey, would you stand by me?...
