I'm holdin' on

I'm just holdin' on

Hey, hey

Ohhh, holdin' on


I was really wrong

Now she's really gone


I used to hold her

I'm never let her down

When she needed me

I was always around


But hey, that's all over now


I was really wrong

Now she's really gone


When temptation found me

Wicked water had its way     (?)

Day turned into night

Night turned into day


And then I read my fortune

In the bottom of a glass

It said, "She's leavin' you."

"You've had your last chance!"


I'm warning you, brother

Take my advice

Love your woman

Morning, noon, and night


Or you'll end up all alone

Like me in an empty room 

Just holdin' on


Just holdin' on


(Guitar solo)


Ohhh, When temptation found me

I'm warning you, brother

Take my advice

Love your woman

Morning, noon, and night


Or you'll end up all alone

Like me in an empty room 

Just holdin' on


Just holdin' on
