They hung a sign up in our town "If you live it up, you won't live it down" So she left Monte Rio, son Just like a bullet leaves a gun With her charcoal eyes and Monroe hips She went and took that California trip Oh, the moon was gold, her hair like wind Said, 'Don't look back just come on, Jim'

Oh, you've got to hold on, hold on Babe, you gotta hold on Take my hand, I'm standing right here You gotta hold on

A song called 'Hold On', hold on Babe, you gotta hold on Take my hand, I'm standing right there You gotta hold on
Hold on, hold on Babe, you gotta hold on Take my hand, I'm standing right there You gotta hold onTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
