Hold On Lyrics - Mule Variations - Tom Waits

They hung a sign up in out town 

if you live it up, you wont 

Live it down 

So, she left monte rio, son 

Just like a bullet leaves a gun 

With charcoal eyes and monroe hips 

She went and took that california trip 

Well, the moon was gold, her 

Hair like wind 

She said dont look back just 

Come on Jim

Oh you got to 

Hold On, Hold On

Well, he gave her a dimestore watch 

And a ring made from a spoon 

Everyone is looking for someone to blame 

But you share my bed, you share my name 

Well, go ahead and call the cops 

You don't meet nice girls in coffee shops 

She said baby, I still love you 

Sometimes there's nothin left to do 

Oh you got to 

Hold On, Hold On 

baby got to Hold On 

Take my hand, Im standing right here, 

You got to Hold Onn.

Down by the riverside motel, 

Its 10 below and falling 

By a 99 cent store she closed her eyes 

And started swaying 

But its so hard to dance that way 

When its cold and theres no music 

Well your old hometown is so far away 

But, inside your head theres a record 

That's playing, a song called 

Hold On, Hold On 

baby got to Hold On 

Take my hand, I'm standing right here 

You got to Hold On 

You got to Hold On 

Hold On, 

Baby got to Hold On 

Take my hand, I'm standing right here 

You got to Hold On 

You got to Hold On 

Hold On, 

Baby got to Hold On 

Take my hand, I'm standing right here 

You got to Hold On 

You got to Hold On 

You got to Hold On 

You got to Hold On 

You got to Hold On 

You got to Hold On baby 

You got to Hold On girl 

You got to Hold On 

You got to Hold On
