| Marriage on the skids
|
| And the folks ain’t doing well
|
| We’re holding on, we’re holding on
|
| Seems like maybe half the people we know
|
| Got the same sad story to tell
|
| Holding on, holding on
|
| But you and me baby, we don’t have to die
|
| We can still dream like it’s Saturday Night
|
| We’re holding on, holding on
|
| I went to see the doctor
|
| He said, «You should be dead»
|
| I said, «I was doc, but now I’m back»
|
| I’m holding on… Yes I am
|
| Well the doctor looked right through me
|
| Shook his little head and said
|
| «What do you know about that?
|
| It looks like you’re holding on»
|
| Ah, you and me baby, we don’t have to die
|
| We can get it on like it’s Saturday night
|
| We’re holding on, holding on
|
| I got an empty feeling
|
| I got an empty feeling baby
|
| And it’s tearing me up inside
|
| Life is a river
|
| It’s a river and I’m watching it flow
|
| I think I might just wander on it one time
|
| And get up to my neck in it
|
| Just to know that I’m alive
|
| Thought I might go by and see Jennifer
|
| I hear she’s livin' back at home
|
| Holding on, holding on
|
| Maybe drop by and fill out an application on my way
|
| But when i got there the whole store was gone
|
| Oh, baby, the whole store was gone
|
| But we’re holding on… |
