 AARON TIPPIN - Twenty-Nine and Holding Lyrics

[Aaron Tippin/Marcus Franklin Johnson]

Oh,she's tender but she's tough
And still willing to love
If there is a man,man enough to be her man
Fighting back the tears and the wolves
But she keeps smiling just as hard as she can

She's twenty-nine and holding the world on her shoulder
They're all counting on mama
And she ain't about to let them down
[Oh]there's no time to worry about turning thirty
When your twenty-nine and holding
The world on your shoulders

Yes the one who she once loved
Just didn't have the guts
l9!2517"917175e!!3g
To be a lover or father or much of a man
Yeah,he just had to have his space
So she put him in his place
Out in the road with his suitcase in hand

She's twenty-nine and holding the world on her shoulder
They're all counting on mama
And she ain't about to let them down
[Oh]there's no time to worry about turning thirty
When your twenty-nine and holding
The world on your shoulders

Well,it's the kids and it's the job
It's like the kitchen and it's a mop
Hey,it's the life of a woman that's on her own
And Lord,I just gotta say
That we all ought to be ashamed
If our biggest trouble is just turning old and gray

She's twenty-nine and holding the world on her shoulder
They're all counting on mama
And she ain't about to let them down
[Oh]there's no time to worry about turning thirty
When your twenty-nine and holding
The world on your shoulders

She's twenty-nine and holding the world on her shoulders
