Hold On

[Chorus]
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can
And if ya' choose to leave me, girl, I'll understand
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can

[Verse 1]
Just like the Mississippi
Our journey starts in Minnesota
Take I-35 to 90
Sioux Falls, South Dakota

[Refrain]
Big "Hi," to that country road
Are we gonna make it on down?
She said, "Yeah, Tim
Aw, Good to see ya, man
Hope y'all stay around"

[Pre-Chorus]
The future's not ours to see
Do what you do girl
But please don't leave

[Chorus]
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can
And if ya' choose to leave me, girl, I'll understand
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can

[Verse 2]
Get down where I wanna be
Ya' do the darkest night
We were born to ride, now baby
Ride 'til the mornin' light

[Refrain]
Took a trip down to Kansas
Missouri, then Arkansas
Stayed with her sister
That girl's above the law

[Chorus]
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can
And if ya' choose to leave me, girl, I'll understand
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can

[Verse 3]
It's a mad house, baby
Fast women, cocaine, and booze
The toughest of the roughest, (right)
I got nuttin' to lose

[Refrain]
Before I met ya'
Everything was going wrong
It's been a long journey, now
Girl I wanna take you home

{Climb}

[Chorus]
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can
And if ya' choose to leave me, girl, I'll understand
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can
