Darius Rucker - Hold On Lyrics






She lives right there off of Rutledge Avenue
She has a few friends but she only has a few
Her next door neighbor plays his music way too loud
She often complains but they play it anyhow

What is a girl supposed to do?
Living alone can have you so confused
But remember now

It won't be too long, girl
Find out where you belong
When you're feeling afraid and alone
Just remember two words, hold on

She works all day to put herself through school
'Cause financial aid doesn't seem to cover food, no, no, no, no
Every morning she rides on the bus to make her gains
It's easy to attain but so hard to sustain, yeah

What is a girl supposed to do
Living alone can have you so confused
But remember now

It won't be too long, girl
You find out where you belong
Whether you're feeling afraid and alone
Just remember two words, hold on

She's coping with pain of things she left behind
Multiple pressures that cloud her mind
And she feels it, her eyes carry no signs of joy

She's tired of rubbing it all the time
Found independence is not so kind
Life ain't easy, all she needs is a friend

Hold on

It won't be too long, girl
Find out where you belong
Feeling afraid and alone
Remember two words, hold on

It won't be too long
Find out where you belong
Feeling afraid and alone
Remember two words, hold on

  10. B.... C....

    As a hootie fan for a long time, this is far beneath my standard for them. Man o man is this bad.

  11. B.... K....

    She made her own misstake with my father , ineed spce from her i put up with enough crap from her , saying meaning things

  12. B.... K....

  25. O.... J....

    This is a banger

  26. S.... ....

    Hasn't this song already been written ?
    Oh, it's the perfect new Hootie song!

  27. M.... Q....

    Yass! They're Back <3

  28. G.... H....

    Darius is the best when hes with Hootie and the Blowfish! There is just something special about that band. And they sound great. Yes, it is a lot like his solo country stuff but hey, at least this time its Hootie and the Blowfish!!

  29. I.... G....

    I LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK

  30. M.... N....

    I first heard this on GMA.

  31. R.... S....

    *Monica Geller likes it*

  32. S.... 2....

    Ahh... good ole Hootie and the Blowfish are finally back again and I just freaking love this song so much!

  33. A.... J....

    Wow!! What a great song.,

  34. Y.... C....

    Beautiful song & so needed. The news is a daily chaotic mess..hate seems to be spreading at a fast pace.But if we hold on Make Love bigger reach out in kindness united together ...nothing is impossible.

  35. E.... B....

    A smile or a heart ache...to a new love or a loss of a love one this song touches all of our hearts.

  36. A.... R....

    Hootie is back with a vengeance!!!

    A.... R....

    Hell yeah! 🤘

  37. L.... T....

    Horrible

    L.... T....

    I love Trent Harmon's original version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OIb-T7sdPk

  38. R.... D....

    I really like this song!! A good upbeat tune!!

  39. J.... ....

    I discovered this band with Let Her Cry and I find a new favorite every time I hear a new song from them. Great music lives for the generations to enjoy.

    J.... ....

    I have loved these guys since I was a teenager. I even love the country that the lead singer broke away from the band to do on his own

  40. D.... M....

    Second to Rollin' for the new songs I've heard yet by them. Me love.

  41. L.... C....

    Love you guys!! Awesome show at Xfinity Center , Mansfield MA. last summer! Thank you! :)

  42. V.... I....

    Now THIS is that Hootie sound I've been waiting for!

  43. T.... R....

    Good song, but it doesn't belong on country radio.

  44. G.... W....

    If this wasn't marketed as Hootie & the Blowfish I would say it was a Darius Rucker song. Doesn't feel like Hootie in their essence. It's a good song. But THIS doesn't take me back to '94, '96 or '98.

    G.... W....

    Gerard Williams I was afraid that was going to be the case from the moment I heard about the whole reunion thing and a new album...none of the songs I’ve heard so far sound like Hootie just like you said which really sucks because I’ve waited so long for it..

    G.... W....

    @whiskey johnson Glad I'm not the only one! I remember exactly what they used to be...this is something different.

    G.... W....

    No doubt that they are trying to appeal to the fan base that Darius has cultivated on his own. I long for the magic of Fairweather Johnson too, but I’m grateful that this new record is as good as it is... it could have totally sucked!

  45. R.... ....

    25 years later, they cracked that rear view again.

  46. d.... n....

    About Fracking time.

  47. B.... V....

    Man I needed to hear this tonight, thanks guys...

  48. A.... D....

    I love this song all Hootie songs are great!

  49. L.... W....

    What a great song! You guys are awesome!

  50. D.... M....

    That beautiful "blue" color is in and of itself a metaphor for better days to come!

  51. K.... P....

    It is and you are correct. Hold on to each other and let go of all the old news.

  52. D.... B....

    Need more Darius Rucker in the world

  53. t.... G....

    I love the guitar solo.

  54. J.... G....

    Out of the songs they have released this far, this is my favorite. Very strong. Love these guys; always will!

  55. i.... ....

    Such an awesome voice

  56. J.... N....

    LOVE it 🥰

  57. C.... R....

    I LOVE IT. ❤️

  58. B.... ....

    L.... P....

  67. R.... S....

    Darius has been putting out hit after hit with Hootie and with his country career. I have no doubt Imperfect Circle is gonna be a great album by these guys.

  68. A.... O....

    I love the singing and playing. It is a pity they didnt write the song.

  69. J.... S....

    Today was the day I learned that Darius Rucker is not just a good country singer but is the lead singer of Hootie and the fucking Blowfish.

    (I’m young so that’s why I didn’t already know about it lol. I’d heard if the band before but had never heard any of their songs up to this point, now I’m binging all of them!)

    J.... S....

    "Hootie & the Blowfish Farm Aid '95"
    YouTube that and you will not be disappointed. This is good but the old stuff is great!

  70. F.... ....

    timeless

  71. K.... B....

    I'm glad they're back. I've missed them..

    K.... B....

    Kareen Burgos you stole the words right out of my mouth! Lol

    K.... B....

    @Clemmo Thanks😁 Yeah!! I mean they're a great band!! What's with all the negativity and racism!!

    K.... B....

    Someone needs to sober up!

    K.... B....

    Brent Randel Wagon wheel has been a written song since the 60s and sung by multiple different musicians!

    K.... B....

    Brent Randel you got some serious issues. Just take a chill pill 💊

  72. P.... P....

    Great song! Love the style! Great music!

  73. C.... S....

    Darius u r my man luv all your music

  74. J.... E....

    Trent Harmon and Hootie & The Blowfish did fantastic job with this song!

    J.... E....

    Care to tell us who the fuck Trent is

    J.... E....

    @countrygirl countrymusiclover The country artist who recorded this song first, a couple of years ago.

    J.... E....

    @countrygirl countrymusiclover Trent Harmon is the original singer of this song. While Darius Rucker's version is very good I much prefer and love Trent's version! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OIb-T7sdPk

  75. N.... P....

    Between this and 'Miss California' I'm going to be wearing out the new album before Christmas gets here :D

  89. O.... I....

    Loving this son omg!!! Yes!!!!

  90. E.... ....

    *SWEET !!! ... 1*

  91. j.... ....

    Are they gonna save any songs for the album. Lol

    j.... ....

    jamesmontana29 It's kind of a weird habit bands have now. Gone are the days of releasing two or three CD singles for a 12 or 13 track album.

    Since Metallica's "Death Magnetic" which saw almost 3/4 of the album released as digital "singles", a lot of bands seemingly release half of a 10 or 11 track album as streaming or free downloadable singles. I guess they just admit to not being able to really cash in on album sales ever again. It's sad to me. Keep the albums a mystery save for the ubiquitous lead single and maybe two follow up singles.

    j.... ....

    @velvetpilot2008 Exactly, that's half the fun buying the album finding the songs that are not widely played. I can understand the current music industry and that theory.

  92. M.... C....

    Wow, I am so impressed with this songwriting, I just can’t get over it.

    M.... C....

    Chris Stapleton and Jim Beavers wrote it.

    M.... C....

    @whatjcp Ed Sheeran, too. :-)

    M.... C....

    whatjcp, Dammit!!

    M.... C....

    K Sera have you listened to Ed Sheeran’s new album? It’s very different

    M.... C....

    Clemmo - yes, he’s so talented and versatile! I’m a huge fan. 😊

  93. D.... L....

    x I dunno, it may be too tinged to fix...maybe not?...x
