Story Behind The Song

we all need a little something to carry on in life be it little or small old or new present or a memory

Lyrics

The TV's on all night long while she lies there sleepin' A little sense of security is all the women's needin' She's not afraid of the dark just afraid of being alone Just one of those little things to help a body carry on carry on In a man's wallet is a black and white faded and scratched A simple reminder of his life and all the good things in his past A time shared between a father and son now that's come and gone Another one of those little things to help a body carry on carry on We all need a little somethin' just to carry on We all need a little somethin' just to carry on We all need a little somethin' just to carry on Nothin' wrong with a little somethin' Help a body carry on She hears him on the radio never misses him on TV Every time he sings that song her young heart skips a beat All her friends they laugh and giggle when she tells them she's in love Just one of those little things to help a body carry on carry on He calls her every Sunday bout the time she gets home from church Says I love and miss you mom how was your week at work Just the sound of his voice makes her feel like he's at home Another one of those little things to help a body carry on carry on We all need a little somethin' just to carry on We all need a little somethin' just to carry on We all need a little somethin' just to carry on Nothin' wrong with a little somethin' Yes good and bad happy or sad we all need a little somethin' To help a body carry on We all need a little somethin' just to carry on We all need a little somethin' just to carry on We all need a little somethin' just to carry on Nothin' wrong with a little somethin'
