Hangin' On
(Rich McCready/Brian Dean Maher/Kevin Hurley/David Ingram)

I got a handful of leather
Got a handful of sky
Well, ain't nothing gonna stop me
>From this eight second ride
Well, they say this life will kill me
But I've got a lot of livin' left to do
And this ole world won't throw me down until I'm gone
'Cause I'm hangin' on

I got a picture of my cowgirl
Got a buckle full of gold
And I'll play out every card
Until it's time for me to fold
And those bill collectors callin' me
But I'll get 'em paid off somewhere down the road
Yeah, sometimes it feels there's nothin' left to hold
But I'm hangin' on

I've taken a few hard falls
Backed up against some high walls
Yet I keep on comin' back for more
And it takes a lot of churnin'
Just to keep this ole fire burnin'
But I'm nowhere that I haven't been before
Lord, I'm hangin' on

I got a bible in my front seat
Got a bottle on the floor
Sometimes I can't recall
Which one of them I'm livin' for
Well, they say this life will kill me
But I've got a lot of livin' left to do
Sometimes it feels there's nothin' left to hold
But I'm hangin' on

I've taken a few hard falls
Backed up against some high walls
Yet I keep on comin' back for more
And it takes a lot of churnin'
Just to keep this ole fire burnin'
But I'm nowhere that I haven't been before
Lord, I'm hangin' on
