 intro  E  (repeat)
 verse1 If you  want to keep  a woman  like me,  you got to hold  on
  If you  want to see  how good  it can be,  baby, hold  on
  All  my friends think that I'm  a fool
  I  tell you something honey, they're  not that cool
  If you  want to keep  a woman  like me,  you better hold  on
 verse2 If you want to know how far we can go, you got to hold on
  If you take it slow then I got something to show you
  Baby, hold on
  All those girls with their empty heads
  Can't fill 'em up with the lies they've been fed
  If you want to know how far I can go, you got to hold on
 turnaround like intro
 bridge She'll  give you reasons for her  kind
  You  might believe it, but I'm  not that blind
 verse3 If you think you need a woman like me, you better hold on
  If you want to find what I've got on my mind, baby, hold on
  All this small talk that keeps us apart
  Is only hiding how we feel in our hearts
  If you want to keep a woman like me, baby, hold on
 outro like intro
