Intro: 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, 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 I got nothing to lose 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
