Texas can't hold me and Nashville don't want me
There's a girl that I know lives down San Antone way
Her pretty blue eyes man they cut like a knife
You know they'll find me in a whiskey filled haze
There's a note on the table that threatens to label
Me lonely and down on my knees
And I know she's my wife but this guitar's my life
So I'll pick until my fingers bleed
You know I never imagined that all this would happen
The first time I heard ole Willie Nelson sing
Those blue eyes are crying just one more love dying
You can't hold it all together (Hold it all together)
With a little diamond ring
Down to a nightly obsession a backseat confession
I'll just block out the thoughts in my brain
Because the storm that's inside aint gonna stop me tonight
From dancing like a fool in the rain
You know I never imagined that all this would happen
The first time I heard ole Willie Nelson sing
Those blue eyes are crying just one more love dying
You can't hold it all together (Hold it all together)
With a little diamond ring
