Hold What You've Got lyrics

You had better hold on

Hold on to what you've got

You had better hold on

Hold on to what you've got

'Cause if you think

Nobody wants it

Just throw it away

And you will see

Somebody else will have it

Before you can count 1-2-3

Yes, they will

Yes, they will

You, women out there

(You had better hold)

Boy, it's hard to find a good and sensitive man

(Hold on)

A man who loves you for who you are

Who really appreciates you

And you know this guy

(You had better hold)

I mean, you start up with a new man

And something you don't know about him

(Hold on)

Just might hurt you

So stick with your man

Don't ever take him for granted

'Cause if you think

Nobody wants him

Just throw him away

And you will see

Some woman will have your man

Before you can count 1-2-3

Yes, she will

Yes, she will

Same goes for you, men

(You had better hold)

There are so many women out there

Who just want to break your heart

(Hold on)

You got a woman who plays fair

You can trust

And hey, she's fun to be with

(You had better hold)

Don't expect any one woman

To fulfill every one of your needs

(Hold on)

They're only human too

Besides which, it's cooler for you to be faithful

And if you think

Nobody wants her

Just let her out on the street

And you will see

Some other man will have her

Before you can count 1-2-3

Yes, he will

Yes, he will

You take love for granted

And it's gone like a bandit

And this loneliness cuts like a knife

When you see what you've lost

And it's already cost

The one you could love your whole life

You had better hold on

Hold on to what you've got

You had better hold on

Hold on to what you've got

You had better hold on

Hold on to what you've got

You better hold on

(You had better hold on)

Hold on to what you've got

You had better hold on

Hold on to what you've got
