Holding On So Tight

Hey Gary, you gonna run down to Carl’s Corner and pick you out one of them lot lizards?

Negatory on the lot lizard, good buddy. I’ve had the old lady in mind for the last five hundred miles and I’m still a long way from home. Think this freight is gonna have to wait, ol’ Gary’s gonna crawl in the back and punch the clown.

I pulled into the truck stop, turned off the radio I shut her down in the parking lot by the smoky neon glow All the way down a big ol’ shelf of magazines wrapped in plastic But I did not even bat an eye, I just walked on past it

I’m holding on so tight to thoughts of you at home These late nights on the road make a man feel alone Sometimes I get so lonely, right down to the bone Holding on so tight to thoughts of you at home

Well, it takes two to tango, but I’m dancing by myself Like that pretty glass unicorn on the truckstop giftshop shelf My fantasy seems so close, but I’m feeling so low ’Til I can touch you again, I just can’t let go

I’m holding on so tight to thoughts of you at home These late nights on the road make a man feel alone Sometimes I get so lonely, right down to the bone Holding on so tight to thoughts of you at home

SOLO

I’m holding on so tight to thoughts of you at home These late nights on the road make a man feel alone Sometimes I get so lonely, right down to the bone Holding on so tight to thoughts of you at home
