Tom Waits "Hold On" Слова пісні

Hold On

Oh you got toHold on, Hold onYou got to hold onTake my hand, I'm standing right hereYou gotta hold on

Well, he gave her a dimestore watchAnd a ring made from a spoonEveryone is looking for someone to blameBut you share my bed, you share my nameWell, go ahead and call the copsYou don't meet nice girls in coffee shopsShe said baby, I still love youSometimes there's nothin left to do

Hold on, hold onYou really got to hold onTake my hand, I'm standing right hereAnd just hold on.
