Holdin' On - John Anderson

The extra forty dollars went for food

The porch needs paint but I ain’t in the mood

The grass keeps growin' and it needs mowin' too

Some days you know it’s all that I can do

Holdin' on, to what I’m holdin' to

The man down at the bank he called today

Asking me just when I plan to pay

The mortgage and the car notes overdue

These days you it’s all that I can do

Holdin' on, to what I’m holdin' to

I though I had a grip on things

Then it slipped away

Now I just keep on fallin' every day

She’s gettin' all dressed up and lookin' fine

But I didn’t send those flowers and I didn’t buy that wine

I turned away 'cause I can’t face the truth

Some days you know it’s all that I can do

Holdin' on, to what I’m holdin' to

I though I had a grip on things

And then it slipped away

Now I just keep on fallin' every day

The extra forty dollars went for food

The porch needs paint but I ain’t in the mood

The grass keeps growin', it needs mowin' too

Some days you know it’s all that I can do

Holdin' on, to what I’m holdin' to
