Lyrics

Heading down out of Texarkana
A little hope in our hearts
Hoping we could be picking out a winner on the next card
Horses all running their races
Down the back stretch
See all the faces
And that look in mama's eyes
when she says

Hope, gimme some hope to hold again
Making me whole
Make me whole again
Now I need a little hope
We all need a little hope 
Got to get a little hope 
Some hope to hold again
Now I need a little hope 

Cutting back roads
Kicking out women they were
Loose in your car
Hoping you could be pickin' out a winner at the next bar
White lies are making their way through all the headlines
I didn’t know how we could be so blind to justify
Justify

Hope, gimme some hope to hold again
Making me whole
Make me whole again
Now I need a little hope
We all need a little hope 
Got to get a little hope 
Some hope to hold again 
Now

I didn’t know it could be so easy
For you to let me go, it tore me down
God now I tried
Cry to the heavens God believe me
Just need a little hope to hold
To hold right now
Got to get a little hope

If I didn't have two pennies or a, a nickel to my name
Would you go find someone better or love me just the same
Oh damn I didn’t know I'd gotten so sad
And I didn’t know I needed you so bad just to find
Just to find 

Hope, gimme some hope to hold again
Making me whole
Make me whole again

Now I need a little hope
We all need a little hope
Got to get a little hope
Some hope to hold again

Now, I need a little hope
Got to get a little hope
We all need a little hope
Some hope to hold again

Now, I need a little hope
Got to get a little hope, now
I need a little hope
