I Am All I Got Lyrics

I remember the day
When I cried out for help
No one came running
And that's when I first knew
I am all I got!

Went to the wise man
But no answer he could give

I went to the kind man
He shrugged his shoulders and wept

You are all you got!

I went to the saint
But he was busy praying

I payed a visit to the sinner
But he said "brother, don't even bother"

You are all u got!

I went to see my mother
But she was busy dying
I went to my father's grave
But he was really dust

Yes I m all I got!

So forgive pretty darling
But I m all I got

Believe it or not
Love will save us not
I am all I got
I am all i got!

There might come a day
When the lord will embrace me
So son get on your knees and pray
I am all you got
But until that day
I am all I got!
