Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Well I know a man with nothing in his hands

Nothing but a rolling stone

He told me 'bout when his house burnt down

And he lost everything he owned

He lay asleep for six whole weeks

They were gonna ask his mother to choose

When he woke up with nothing

He said I'll tell you something

You're nothing

You've got nothing to lose

[Chorus]

"Now I've got a hole in my pocket, a hole in my shirt

A whole lot of trouble" he said

But now the money is gone, well life carries on

And I miss it like a hole in the head, in the head

[Verse 2]

Well I know a woman

With kids around her ankles and a baby on her lap

She said one day her husband went to get a paper

The motherfucker never came back

Hey, a mortgage to pay, four kids to raise

Keeping the wolf from the door

She said the wolf's just a puppy

And the door's double locked, so why you gotta worry me for?

[Chorus]

Well he left a hole in my heart, a hole in a promise

A hole on the side of my bed

Hey, but now that he's gone, well life carries on

And I miss him like a hole in the head

[Verse 3]

Well sometimes you can't change and you can't choose

And sometimes it seems you gain less than you lose

[Chorus]

Now we've got holes in our hearts

Yeah, we've got holes in our lives

Well we've got holes

We've got holes but we carry on

[Chorus]

Said we've got holes in our hearts

Yeah, we've got holes in our lives

Well we've got holes

We've got holes but we carry on

[Chorus]

Hey, we've got holes in our hearts

Yeah, we've got holes in our lives

Well we've got holes

We've got holes but we carry on

[Chorus]

Said we've got holes in our hearts

Yeah, we've got holes in our lives

Well we've got holes

We've got holes but we carry on

[Chorus]

Yeah, we've got holes in our hearts

We've got holes in our lives

We've got holes, yeah

Oh, we've got holes but we carry on now

[Chorus]

Said we've got holes in our hearts

We've got holes in our lives

We've got holes, yeah

Oh, we've got holes but we carry on

[Chorus]

Said we've got holes in our hearts

Yeah, we've got holes in our lives

Where we've got holes

We've got holes but we carry on

[Chorus]

Said we've got holes in our hearts

Yeah, we've got holes in our lives

Where we've got holes

We've got holes but we carry on
