We Held On

Jerry King, Joe Tex, Louis Bernard Johnson

We held on darlin', we held on
Baby, we held on to what we had
They couldn't break us up
They couldn't break us up, baby
We held on, hah baby, we held on
Oh, we held on to what we had, ha ha
One-two-three, you and me
Baby, we held on to what we had oh Lord

People are sure shocked, huh
Tryin' to playin' god
Claimin' to know just when and
Where you're gonna fall
When they don't know nothin'
They said we'd last six months and no more
Hah well that was fifteen long years ago
We're still together now
We're still together now, baby, 'cause

We held on baby, we held on
Oh Lord, we held on to what we had
One-two-three, you and me
Baby, we held on to what we had, hah

Now they came after us from
The left and the right
We had to put up one heck of a fight
Yeah, we hit 'em where it hurt
They said our love was a big mistake
And I laughed when you told 'em
To go jump in the lake
Go jump in the lake, go jump in the lake

We held on, didn't we, baby?
Darlin', we held on, hah
Oh, we held on to what we had, ha ha ha
One-two-three, you and me
Baby, we held on to what we had

They tried everything to stop us
But we held on baby, we held on
Ooh Lord, we held on to what we had
They couldn't stop us if they wanted to
We held on baby, we held on
Baby, we held on to what we had
And if they ever tried to mess with this
To hold on, that's what we'd do
'cause we held on
Me and my baby, we held on to what we had
Make, feel so good when you hold, ha ha!
Oh Lord, baby, we held on
Me and my baby held on to what we (Had)
Come a little bit closer held on
Baby, we held on
Oh, we held on to what we had
Ooh it sure feels good, y'all

Held on, try it sometime 'Cause we held on
Baby, we held on to what we had
Y'all so all excited, 'cause we held on
Baby, we held on
