Isaac Hayes - Don't Let Go Lyrics






Hear that whistle its 10 o'clock
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go)
Come on baby it's time to rock
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go)
I'm so glad I've got you here
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go)
Keeps me grinnin' from ear to ear
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go)

Ooh-ee, mmm this feelin' is killin' me
Aaaw shucks
Well, I wouldn't stop for a million bucks
(I love you so)
Just hold me tight and don't let go

Thunder, lightnin', wind and rain
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go)
Love is formin' inside my brain
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go)
I'm so eager I'm nearly dyin'
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go)
You've been keepin' your lips from mine
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go)

Ooh-ee, mmm this feelin' is killin' me
Aaaw shucks
Well, I wouldn't stop for a million bucks
(I love you so)
Just hold me tight and don't let go, yeah
Whoa, yeah
Don't let go
Come on and kiss me, kiss me sweet
Hold me tight baby and don't let go
(Don't let go)
Come on and love me
You've gotta love me
(Don't let go)
I want ya, I want ya, I really, really want ya
(Don't let go)
All night, feels so right
(Don't let go)
Hold me tight, don't let go

Hound dogs barkin' upside the hill
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go)
Love is draggin' him through the mill
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go)
If it wasn't for havin' you, girl
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go)
I'd be a-howlin' and a-barkin' too
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go)

Ooh-ee, mmm this feelin' is killin' me
Aaaw shucks
Well, I wouldn't stop for a million bucks
(I love you so)
Just hold me tight and don't let go, no
No, no don't let go
I need ya so, girl
Hold me, momma
(Hold me tight if it takes all night)
(But don't let go)
Don't, don't let me go
(I wouldn't stop for a million bucks)
('Cause I love you so)
No, no, no I love you so, yeah

  52. W.... G....

    Remember Issac Hayes in Escape from New York, that first scene when he drove in that Cadi with a chandelier on it? This is the song that should have been playing.

    W.... G....

    The Duke of New York!!!

    W.... G....

    The duke of New York, he's a number one

  53. m.... c....

    this is a song from the 50's I heard the Original version years ago it doesn't sound anything like version at all

  54. d.... t....

    Issac Hayes had a 5 octave voice range. .....Unfortunately, I did not like any of them. (Jokes are the most sincere form of flattery. Or was that imitation? Don't quote me).

  55. P.... R....

    I'm not gay, but you compare the Isaac Hayes' masculinity with today's singers. Beyond his musical talent. Ah, and HIS voice.

  56. j.... ....

    Great music.

  57. w.... p....

    high school times.

  58. R.... D....

    The man from Shaft going disco!

  59. J.... T....

    I was twelve when this came out in 1979.What I remember most is having this song on a K-Tell disco record with a bunch of other disco songs from that era.

    J.... T....

    I was 11 yrs old in 1979 and had that exact K-Tel album with Don't Let Go and I Got My Mind Made Up (You Can Get It Girl) by Instant Funk 💫💥🌟⭐✨💙

    My favorite disco 1979

  61. T.... C....

    one of the very best the great isaac hayes

  62. D.... ....

    His hips make me laugh every time!

    D.... ....

    Deadprez101 ...it was a dance called The Rock.

  63. g.... s....

    does anybody know the name of a song by hayes  that came out around the same time possibly the same album? ima take a stab @the lyrics: I ain't  never wanna to make love 2 a woman, the way I wanna make love 2 u. then somewhere in the song the back singers say go head, go head, go head. it's a funky up tempo tune

    entered Billboard Oct 27, 1979..reached #18.. originally a hit for Roy Hamilton in Jan 1958. this is MONO

    C.... S....

    I remember hearing Roy Hamilton's version when I was in high school back in the Eighties and years after I'd gotten older I like Mr.Hamiltons version also

    C.... S....

    I was listening to top 40 in 1979 that's where I'd hear songs they didn't play  on KFRC.

  73. J.... T....

    yes ike

  74. S.... R....

    this is THE sexiest song EVER! I'm 61 year old white girl and this drives me craaaaaaazy!  He had a voice like honey

    S.... R....

    Back in the day it drove me craaazy too. It was my "theme song"

    S.... R....

    Sheila Riley ... I agree

    S.... R....
