Hold on, hold on, hold on tight
It's gonna be rough
But it's gonna be alright

When you're little with nothing but love
To keep you warm when the nights get cold
It's nice to know your folks are there
When you need someone to hold

Hold on, hold on, hold on tight
It's gonna be rough
But it's gonna be alright

When you're gettin' a little older
And wearing those hand hand-me-downs
It's nice to have that shaggy old dog
At your heels when you turn around

Hold on, hold on, hold on tight
It's gonna be rough
But it's gonna be alright

When you meet the woman that loves
To keep you warm when the nights get cold
It's nice to know that she's always there
When you need someone to hold

Hold on, hold on, hold on tight
It's gonna be rough
But it's gonna be alright

Hold on, hold on, hold on tight
It's gonna be rough
But it's gonna be alright
