"Holdin' On" lyrics - 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
