[Intro]
Hold on, girl
Ooh, girl, hold on
[Verse 1]
Girl, let’s rock around the clock
We can dance and never stop
Come on, girl, just hold on tight
I know you wanna rock tonight
[Verse 2]
Through the night into the day
We could chase our blues away
So grab a hold, don’t lose control
I really know you got the soul
[Hook]
Hold on, girl, hold on
Ooh, girl, hold on
Hold on, girl, hold on
Ooh, girl, hold on
[Verse 3]
Girl, the feeling’s in the air
Don’t you know it’s everywhere
Everywhere around the block
People dance until they just can’t stop
[Verse 4]
Through the night into the day
We could chase our blues away
So grab a hold, don’t lose control
I really know you got the soul
[Outro]
Hold on, girl, hold on
Ooh, girl, hold on
Hold on, girl, hold on
Ooh, girl, hold on
Hold on, girl, hold on
Ooh, girl, hold on
Hold on, girl, hold on
Ooh, girl, hold on
Hold on, girl
Ooh, girl, hold on
[Verse 1]
Girl, let’s rock around the clock
We can dance and never stop
Come on, girl, just hold on tight
I know you wanna rock tonight
[Verse 2]
Through the night into the day
We could chase our blues away
So grab a hold, don’t lose control
I really know you got the soul
[Hook]
Hold on, girl, hold on
Ooh, girl, hold on
Hold on, girl, hold on
Ooh, girl, hold on
[Verse 3]
Girl, the feeling’s in the air
Don’t you know it’s everywhere
Everywhere around the block
People dance until they just can’t stop
[Verse 4]
Through the night into the day
We could chase our blues away
So grab a hold, don’t lose control
I really know you got the soul
[Outro]
Hold on, girl, hold on
Ooh, girl, hold on
Hold on, girl, hold on
Ooh, girl, hold on
Hold on, girl, hold on
Ooh, girl, hold on
Hold on, girl, hold on
Ooh, girl, hold on
