Hanging on
Trouble is all around me
Times are getting hard
My money's low
But I know
I just can't let her go
'Cause this girl of mine
I just love her so

Hanging on
Holding her tight with all my might
Even if it kills me
I'm gonna treat my baby right, yeah
She's there to love me
When I need loving so
I don't have to call her
She just seems to know
How to make me happy
Make me feel like a king
Telling you, brother
I ain't giving up a doggone thing

Hanging on
You'd be wise to do so too
If you got a woman who's have as good to you
Look at me, how happy can one man be?
'Cause I got a woman who's crazy about me
Don't let go
Don't let go

I'd be so afraid to ever let my baby go
I don't care what it costs me
I love that woman so
I'll keep working, baby
Bring all my money home
'Cause I know she's waiting
I won't be long
I'm hanging on
I'm hanging on to you, baby
Hanging on
