Holding My Own - George Strait

There are people who don’t know me

Who must think I’ve got it made

From all outward appearances

I guess it looks that way

I’ve got good friends and family

They let me know they care

I got a job to keep me going

And a car to get me there

I’m holding my own but I’d rather be holding you

I can make it alone but not like I made it with you

Without you here this house just ain’t no home

How long can I go on holding my own?

There’s a brand new show that’s playing

At the movies down the street

I’ll probably go there after work

Then stop somewhere to eat

I’ve got cable on my TV

And I’ll leave her on all night

While I doze off to sleep

And dream that I’m alright

How long can I go on holding my own?
