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 you choose to leave me, girl, I'll understand
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can.
Just like the Mississippi
Our journey starts in Minnesota
Take I-35 to 90
Soon, through South Dakota
Big "Hi," to that country road.
Are we gonna make it on down?
She said, "Yeah, Tim.
Aw, Good to see ya.
Hope you all stick around."
The futures not the hardest to see.
Do what you do girl,
but please don't leave.
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 you choose to leave me, girl, I'll understand
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can.
Get down when I wanna, man.
Get through the darkest night.
We were born to ride, now baby,
ride until the morning light
Took a trip down to Kansas,
Missouri, then Arkansas.
Stayed with her sister,
that girl's above the law.
The futures not the hardest to see.
Do what you do girl,
but please don't leave.
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 you choose to leave me, girl, I'll understand
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can.
It's a mad house, baby.
Fast women, cocaine, and booze.
Toughest of the roughest, (right)
I got nothing to loose.
Before I met ya,
everything was going wrong.
It been a long journey, now
girl I wanna take you home.
The futures not the hardest to see.
Do what you do girl,
but please don't leave.
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 you choose to leave me, girl, I'll understand
I'm gonna hold on to you as long as I can.
