Hold On

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

Look in the mirror, what you see?

Are you the one you want to be? Well

Are you tripping on cloud nine

Or has the world left you behind? Well

What do you have, what can you show?

What people see is what they know, well

Time has its changes that we all go through

How the wheels of life will turn will all depend on you

Some things in life are hard to see, baby

That's why I want you to listen to me

Hold on to what you got, oh, yeah

Tomorrow don't promise a whole lot

Hold on to what you got

Tomorrow don't promise a whole lot

Great balls of fire, you work so hard

You break your back to keep your job, well

Times today ain't what they used to be

Is that so hard for you to see?

Simple things can make you happy

This I know we've all been told

Don't be blinded by tomorrow

And let these words stay with your soul

"All that glitters is not gold"

So many things you could be losing, baby

If you're the one you're really fooling

Hold on (hold on) to what you got

Tomorrow don't promise a whole lot, well, well

Hold on to what you got

Tomorrow don't promise a whole lot, aw, well

Well, yeah

Hold, hold, do, do, do, do, do-do, do, yeah (aah, woo!)

Hold, hold, do, do, do, do, do-do, do, yeah (aaah)

Sho'nuff looking fine and fancy

You're flying high, so it seems, yeah

Don't let grooving to the Joneses

Make you step out of your means

Plastic faces, funny books

Nothing's real now, once you look, yeah

People all dressed up like Hollywood

Can't tell the bad guys from the good

(You better) hold on to what you got

Tomorrow don't promise a whole lot

Hold on to what you got (hold, hold, do, do, do, do, do-do, do)

Tomorrow don't promise a whole lot (aah, woo, do, do, do, do, do-do, do)

Hold on to what you got (hold, hold, do, do, do, do, do-do, do)

Tomorrow don't promise a whole lot (yeah, yeah)

Hold on to what you got (hold, hold, do, do, do, do, do-do, do)

Tomorrow don't promise a whole lot (woo, woo, do, do, do, do, do-do, do, aw)
