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...
