Went to a beautiful place one time Didn’t care nothing ’bout a nickel or a dime Sat there watching the river roll by Spent my whole life with a tear in my eye
Lord, and I’m on my way Oh, and it won’t be long Lord, and I’m holding on
Gravity getting the best of me Won’t be long just as far as I can see Ashes to ashes we all fall down No use fighting what’s sealed and bound
Lord, and I’m on my way Oh, and it won’t be long You know that I’m holding on
Pushin’ my weight against stone walls Playin’ a guitar given by grandpa He never learned to pick one tune Gave his soul to heaven in the month of June
Lord, and I’m on my way Oh, and it won’t be long You know that I’m holding on I’m holdin’ on
Lord, and I’m on my way Oh, and it won’t be long Lord, and I’m holding on You know that I’m holding on
