Just Hang On

When I was young

Back when life was fun

I recall the words my papa said

He said to be a man

You gotta try and understand

There's one thing that you must know

If you want to go far

Well, set yourself a goal

And just hang on, just hang on

And if you do this my son

Your gonna make it someday

Just hang on, my son

That's the only way

Well it wasn't long

When I left daddy's home

All alone with no place to be

With a great surprise

It looked me straight in the eyes

A red guitar and the dreams of a star

If you want to go far

Set yourself a goal

And just hang on, just hang on

And if you do this my son

You're gonna make it someday

Just hang on, my son

That's the only way

That's the only way

You'll be a star some day

I say, Lord, let me hear you play

Play on...
