Just Hold On
- Lyrics and music by Lobo, Adriel (Mar 14th, 2011)

VERSE 1:
There’ a teenager in the world somewhere
Who’s sick and tired of school
Workin’ two part time jobs while
Tryin’ to be cool

VERSE 2:
She’s takin’ to cuttin’ herself lately
Tryin’ to be a part of the scene
But that don’t help her cause so now she’s
Reachin’ for the Listerine. Babe

CHORUS:
Don’t give in
Don’t give out (No)
Don’t give in
Just hold out (No)
Don’t give in
Don’t give out
Don’t give in
Just hold on now

VERSE 3:
I saw this girl on a bus somewhere
With worry on her mind
I try to smile but she don’t care
Her boyfriend’ on the line

VERSE 4:
She hasn’t heard of him since lately
Stayin’ strong the best she can
She’ wishin’ on the shootin’ stars cause her boyfriend’
Fightin’ in a distant land Babe

CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
And it’s the 26th of June and I hear the cop sayin,
“This ain’t your Canada man”
And I say, “Excuse me officer what the flip are you sayin”
Then he threw me in the can ………

CHORUS:
And I won’t
I won’t give in
No yeah I won’t give out
Baby you don’t give in
Don’t give out
Well don’t give in
Don’t give out
And I say don’t give in
And you say don’t give out
And they say don’t give in
And they say just hold on now
