Lynne Rockie - Holding Back The Ocean lyrics

I packed up my truck an' everything I owned I said my goodbye's and threw away my phone I didn't know where I was goin', so, I just drove South of Miami, down through the Keys Road finally ended when I hit the sea I sent a postcard home sayin' "Don't y'all worry 'bout me" I'm just holding back the ocean Makin' sure the breeze keeps blowin' Watchin' over the stars at night Till the sun shines bright in the morning I ain't worried 'bout a damn thing Keep your gold watches and your bra** rings I'm tired of goin' through the motions I'm just holding back the ocean String bikini's an' long blond hair An' you can taste the salt in the air People laughin' and actin' like They don't have a prayer It's twenty-four seven at my new occupation Don't even earn a dime but I wouldn't trade it I'm workin' overtime on this permanent vacation I'm just holding back the ocean Makin' sure the breeze keeps blowin' Watchin' over the stars at night Till the sun shines bright in the morning I ain't worried 'bout a damn thing Keep your gold watches and your bra** rings I'm tired of goin' through the motions I'm just holding back the ocean It's up to you, what you do with your life I'll be spendin' mine I'm just holding back the ocean Makin' sure the breeze keeps blowin' Watchin' over the stars at night Till the sun shines bright in the morning I ain't worried 'bout a damn thing Keep your gold watches and your bra** rings I'm tired of goin' through the motions I'm just holding back the ocean I'm tired of goin' through the motions I'm just holding back the ocean
