The Rascals
"Hold On"

Hold on, I’ll tell you in a minute,
I got a mind to go out and get it,
Now hold on, I’ll tell you in a minute,
I’ve been thinking ‘bout life,
And living it.

You sure looking fine, pretty woman,
I’d like to get to know you,
A little better,
Maybe learn to live up on a star now,
What you think of that, girl?

Just like a bee needs a hive,
I need your love to keep me alive.

Hold on, I’ll tell you in a minute,
When an apple’s ripe you got to pick it,
Now hold on, I’ll tell you in a minute,
I got a feeling that I’m gonna get it.

I’ve seen you walking around,
Little darling,
I like the way you got it all together,
What you think of you and me, baby,
Out of sight, we’re gonna do it tonight.

I won’t give up until I try,
I want you, girl, right by my side.

Now hold on, I’ll tell you in a minute,
I got a feeling that I’m gonna get it.
Hold on, I’ll tell you in a minute,
Life is such a gas with you in it.

Cause I’ve been searching a long time,
Baby,
It’s worth waiting to have you near me,
But there I go dreaming out loud again,
I’m gonna find the doorway,
Right to your heart.

When you try your very best,
I’m gonna take you home,
Little girl, to my nest.
