Legends of Rodeo - Hold On Nothing Lyrics lyrics

rate me

In a Texas town on the borderline

Right off highway 79

There’s a river bed up around a bend that knows no joy

That knows no friend

Two swollen bodies of baby ghosts

Make their way down to the coast

To see an ocean they've never seen

To see the people they'll never be

We gotta whole lotta money

We got our New York City

We gotta whole lotta nothing

We got a hold on that

Boy climbs up the Brooklyn Bridge

Maybe he'll jump, maybe he'll live

He says he's got a baby girl and she's on the way

But she's too young to know about this day anyways

And all the cameras are in the sky

There to make sure this is televised

Cause this is what makes ratings high

This is channel 9 coming to you live

We gotta whole lotta money

We got our New York City

We gotta whole lotta nothing

We got a hold on that, yeah

We got our Boston, San Francisco

We got our New York City

We got a whole lotta nothing

We've got a hold on that, yeah

And we harvest grain and we ship it off to a better place

To a better cause

And our politicians all shake hands

They smile and say were doin' the best we can

We gotta whole lotta money

We got our New York City

We gotta whole lotta nothing

We got a hold on that, yeah

We got our Boston, San Francisco

We got our New York City

We got a whole lotta nothing

We've got a hold on that, yeah
