I remember that first moment outside of Abilene,
I drew a bull named Lightning I was barely 17,
My momma called me crazy she just didnt understand,
She said she wouldnt be there,
But I saw her in the stands,
I threw one hand in the air,
And I said a little prayer,
(chorus)
If I can just hold on with all as long as i can,
This a defining moment to see the kind of man I am,
Just hold on with all of my might,
I know that I will find the strength to make it through this night,
If I can just hold on,
Yeah,
Now I ride for a livin,
Its the only life I know
Everybody knows my name everywhere I go,
The big show down in Houston
Down to my final ride,
I drew a bull named Tombstone
He had fire in his eyes,
I heard he was mean as hell
So i just whispered to myself,
(chorus)
If I can just hold on with all as long as i can,
This a defining moment to see the kind of man I am,
Just hold on with all of my might,
I know that I will find the strength to make it through this night,
Just hold on,
Yeah,
If I can just hold on
The crowd fell silent I was on my back,
I heard distant sirens then it all went black,
I was barely alive,
But I know I can survive,
If I can just hold on with all as long as i can,
This a defining moment to see the kind of man I am,
Just hold on with all of my might,
I know that I will find the strength to make it through this night,
Just hold on
Yeah
Oh if I can just hold on,
I remember that first moment outside of Abilene...
