Hold On

I have my reasons and they wonder why.
So there's a few tears and sometimes I cry.
I ain't no different than any other girl.
My man is the same as every man in the world.
Yet I'm not alone
And I'm gonna hold on to what I've got. (Hold on.)
Ahhh, to what I've got.
Now he's so sweet and he's so kind.
The gentlest man a girl could ever find.
Like everyone else, we fuss and fight,
But there's nothing like making love all through the night.
(Make it right through the night.)
I love him so
And everyone should know I wanna hold on.
Girl, Claudin's gonna hold on. (Hold on.)
Ahhh.
He's looking out the side of his eye
Every girl that passes him by.
Girl, hold on. (Hold it, hold it.)
You're asking too much.
Allow him to look so long as he doesn't touch.
'Cause you're no different than any other girl.
Your man is the same as every man in the world.
A man you don't destroy, (Don't destroy)
But he's not a boy. (He's not a boy.)
So girl, hold on. (Hold on.)
I wanna hold on, hold on, hold on, uh huh. (Hold on.)
A precious love, I must imply,
Cannot be kept from guy to guy.
Girl, hold on. (Hold him, hold him, hold him.)
Girl, hold on.
Uh huh, heh, yeah.
Like everyone else, we fuss and fight,
But there's nothing like making love all through the night.
(Make it right through the night.)
I love him so
And everyone oughta know I wanna hold on. (Hold on.)
Girl, Claudine, you better hold on. (Hold on.)
Ah, ah, ah.
A precious love, I must imply,
Cannot be kept from guy to guy.
Girl, hold on. (Hold him, hold him, hold him.)
You're asking too much.
Allow him to look so long as he doesn't touch.
'Cause you're no different than any other girl.
Your man is the same as every man in the world.
A man you don't destroy. (Don't destroy)
He's not a boy. (He's not a boy.)
Girl, hold on. (Hold on.)
Claudine, girl, you better hold on. (Hold on.)
If you want to try real hard to keep it, keep it,
You've got to open your eyes.
Your eyes are sleeping, sleeping.
You've got to hold on. (Hold on.)
Girl, you better hold on. (You've got to hold on.)
Uh, uh.
If you want to try real hard to keep it, keep it,
You've got to open your eyes.
Your eyes are sleeping, sleeping.
You've got to hold on. (Hold on.)
Claudine, you better hold on. (You've got to hold on.)
Oh, oh, oh.
If you want to try real hard to keep it, keep it,
You've got to open your eyes.
Your eyes are sleeping, sleeping.
