Lyrics
Years ago, my heart was set to live, oh But I’ve been trying hard against unbelievable odds
It gets so hard at times like now to hold on My guns they’re waiting to be stuck by At my side is God
And there ain’t no one gonna turn me 'round
Ain’t no one gonna turn me 'round
There’s people around who tell you that they know
The places where they send you, and it’s easy to go They’ll zip you up and dress you down
Stand you in a row
But you know you don’t have to You can just say no And there ain’t no one gonna turn me 'round
Ain’t no one gonna turn me 'round
Ain’t no one gonna turn me 'round
Ain’t no one gonna turn me 'round
I’ve been built up and trusted
Broke down and busted
But they’ll get theirs and we’ll get ours
Just if we can
Just, ah, hold on Hold on Hold on Hold on Years ago my heart was set to live, oh But I’ve been trying hard against strong odds
It gets so hard at times like now to hold on Well, I’ll fall if I don’t fight
And at my side is God
Ain’t no one gonna turn me 'round
Ain’t no one gonna turn me 'round
Ain’t no one gonna turn me 'round
Ain’t no one gonna turn me 'round
Hold on Hold on Hold on Hold on Years ago I was all set to go And I’ve been trying hard against long odds
It gets so hard at times like this to even hang around
I can either stand or fall
And I believe I’m gonna stand tall
