Legends of Rodeo Lyrics
"Hold On Nothing"

In a Texas town on the borderline
Right off highway 79
There's a river bed up around a bend that knows no joy
That knows no friend

Two swollen bodies of baby ghosts
Make their way down to the coast
To see an ocean they've never seen
To see the people they'll never be

We gotta whole lotta money
We got our New York City
We gotta whole lotta nothing
We got a hold on that

Boy climbs up the Brooklyn Bridge
Maybe he'll jump, maybe he'll live
He says he's got a baby girl and she's on the way
But she's too young to know about this day anyways

And all the cameras are in the sky
There to make sure this is televised
Cause this is what makes ratings high
This is channel 9 coming to you live

We gotta whole lotta money
We got our New York City
We gotta whole lotta nothing
We got a hold on that, yeah

We got our Boston, San Francisco
We got our New York City
We got a whole lotta nothing
We've got a hold on that, yeah

And we harvest grain and we ship it off to a better place
To a better cause
And our politicians all shake hands
They smile and say were doin' the best we can

We gotta whole lotta money
We got our New York City
We gotta whole lotta nothing
We got a hold on that, yeah

We got our Boston, San Francisco
We got our New York City
We got a whole lotta nothing
We've got a hold on that, yeah
