(Ooh ooh ooh ooh) (Ooh ooh ooh ooh) Hanging by a thread (Ooh ooh ooh ooh) Two steps back One foot closer to the edge Worn out souls tap dancing on the ledge Trying to make tails from heads Na Na Na Na Holding it together Holding it together though Holding it together Holding it together though Lick and a promise and we gon' hold it together Yea a lick and a promise and we gon' hold it together now Got down on my knees this morning To count my blessings Couldn't count all of 'em Last night's news said be scared But the sun came up and the sky's still there Hanging by a thread (Ooh ooh ooh ooh) Two steps back One foot closer to the edge Worn out souls tap dancing on the ledge Trying to make tails from heads Na Na Na Na Holding it together Holding it together though Holding it together Holding it together though A lick and a promise and we gon' hold it together yea A lick and a promise and we gon' hold it together now Do my favors Pay my dues (Ooh) Please don't mind my Ps and Qs (Oh) Take my licks I grin and I bear it But ain't no time to be embarrassed When you hanging by a thread (Ooh ooh ooh ooh) Two steps back One foot closer to the edge Worn out souls tap dancing on the ledge Trying to make tails from heads Na Na Na Na Holding it together Holding it together though (Mmm mmm mmm) Holding it together Holding it together though (Mmm mmm mmm) A lick and a promise and we gon' hold it together yea A lick and a promise and we gon' hold it together now Shed my tears I give my blood Pour my heart It ain't enough Someone's always asking for something It could be worse When no one wants nothing from me So happy to say Whatever happen today If I bend over backwards, land flat on my face I can pick up the pieces put em where they belong No matter how many times I've tried and gotten it wrong I'm Holding it together Holding it together yea I'm holding it together Holding it together yea A lick and a promise and I'ma hold it together yea A lick and a promise and we gon' hold it together now (Ooh ooh ooh ooh) Two steps back One foot closer to the edge Worn out souls tap dancing on the ledge Can't make tails from heads Na Na Na Na (Help me Lord) Holding it together Yea holding it together (Holding it together) Lick and a promise and we gon' hold it together yea A lick and a promise Whatever I bide my time till next pay day Counting tomorrow that's two weeks away Not much earned A lot less saved Not enough time or energy No no To stay on top of every new thing Ragged and used but I'ma make it through A little bubblegum and some old shoe string, kinda Holding it together Holding it together look I'm holding it together Holding it together yea Lick and a promise And I'ma hold it together yea Just a lick and a promise Don't let me lose it forever (Ooh yea)
