Bob Kayli — Hold On Pearl lyrics

Lyrics

I’ve got a girl
Her name is Lucy Pearl
I hope that she loves me
But she lives kinda dangerously
Like the time on the mountaintop
Heard a scream and I saw her drop
My heart was heavy I was feeling sad
But she was hanging by a twig laughing like mad
I cried…
(hold on)
Hold on Pearl (hold on)
Hold on girl (hold on)
Hold on Pearl
It’s your Bobby, coming for you
Another time she was lagging back
And caught her size 10 foot in a railroad track
The train was coming it was plain to see
She kept laughing at the train and screaming to me
I cried…
(hold on)
Hold on Pearl (hold on)
Hold on girl (hold on)
Hold on Pearl
It’s your Bobby, coming for you
They say she don’t love me
And that she wants to drive me crazy
But because I love her so
She calls my name and I’ve got to go
Like the time we were at the beach
And she went swimming way out of reach
I heard a glub-glub and she went down
I knew I couldn’t let my little baby drown
I cried…
(hold on)
Hold on Pearl (hold on)
Hold on girl (hold on)
Hold on Pearl
It’s your Bobby, coming for you
I jumped right in although I could not swim
got to where she used to be
Then things went dark I started sinking down
I looked around and she was saving me
Saving me
Saving me
She was saving me
I cried…
Hold on Pearl! (hold on)
ever did before! (hold on)
Hold on Pearl!
Or I won’t be saving you no more (hold on)
Hold on Pearl! (hold on)
Squeeze me baby and don’t let go (hold on)
Hold on Pearl!
Why don’t you (hold on)
