Holding Things Together Lyrics - Tulare Dust: A Songwriters' Tribute To Merle Haggard - Merle Haggard

Holding things together 

Ain't no easy thing to do 

When it comes to raisin' children 

It's a job - meant for two 

Alice please believe me 

I can't go on and on 

Holding things together 

With you gone. 

Today was Angie's birthday 

I guess it slipped your mind 

I tried twice to call you 

But no answer either time 

But the postman brought a present 

I mailed some days ago 

I just signed it love from mama 

So Angie wouldn't know. 

Holding things together 

Ain't no easy thing to do 

When it comes to raisin' children 

It's a job - meant for two 

Alice please believe me 

I can't go on and on 

Holding things together 

With you gone. 

Alice please believe me 

I can't go on and on 

Holding things together 

With you gone.
