Current song lyrics
They hung a sign up in our town<br />?If you live it up, you won?t live it down?<br />So she left Monte Rio, son<br />Just like a bullet leaves a gun<br />With her charcoal eyes and Monroe hips<br />She went and took that California trip<br />Oh, the moon was gold, her hair like wind<br />Said, ?Don?t look back, just come on, Jim?<br /><br />Oh, you got to hold on, hold on<br />You gotta hold on<br />Take my hand, I?m standing right here<br />You gotta hold on<br /><br />Well, he gave her a dimestore watch<br />And a ring made from a spoon<br />Everyone?s looking for someone to blame<br /><br />When you share my bed, you share my name<br />Well, go ahead and call the cops<br />You don?t meet nice girls in coffee shops<br />She said, ?Baby, I still love you?<br />Sometimes there?s nothin? left to do<br /><br />Oh, but you got to hold on, hold on<br />Babe, you gotta hold on<br />And take my hand, I?m standing right here<br />You gotta hold on<br /><br />Well, God bless your crooked little heart<br />St. Louis got the best of me<br />I miss your broken China voice<br />How I wish you were still here with me<br />Oh, you build it up, you wreck it down<br />Then you burn your mansion to the ground<br />Oh, there?s nothing left to keep you here<br />But when you?re falling behind in this big blue world<br /><br />Oh, you?ve got to hold on, hold on<br />Babe, you gotta hold on<br />Take my hand, I?m standing right here<br />You gotta hold on<br /><br />Down by the Riverside motel<br />It?s 10 below and falling<br />By a 99 cent store<br />She closed her eyes and started swaying<br />But it?s so hard to dance that way<br />When it?s cold and there?s no music<br />Oh, your old hometown?s so far away<br />But inside your head there?s a record that?s playing<br /><br />A song called ?Hold On?, hold on<br />Babe, you gotta hold on<br />Take my hand, I?m standing right there<br />You gotta hold on<br /><br />You gotta hold on, hold on<br />Babe, you gotta hold on<br />Take my hand, I?m standing right there<br />You gotta hold on<br /><br />You gotta hold on, hold on<br />Babe, you gotta hold on<br />And take my hand, I?m standing right here<br />You gotta hold on<br /><br />You gotta hold on, hold on<br />Babe, you gotta hold on<br />And take my hand, I?m standing right here<br />You gotta hold on<br /><br />You gotta hold on<br />You gotta hold on<br />You gotta hold on<br />You gotta hold on<br />You gotta hold on, baby<br />You gotta hold on, girl<br />You gotta hold on<br />You gotta hold on<br /><br />Music & Lyrics by: Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan<br />Official release: ?Mule Variations?, Anti Inc., © 1999
