Robinson, Tom - Hold Out Lyrics






You can't fool all of the people
And it galls me to remember I tried
Those whom the Lord
Has joined with his sword
Let no man put aside
The kiss on your lips tastes of wormwood
So swing low, Iscariot, my friend
I'm promising you
I'm gonna see it right through
Hold out to the bitterest end
I'm gonna hold out, hold out
Hold out to the bitterest end

I fear neither hell nor high water
Come October this time I'll be gone
There's changes to be made
And some debts to be paid
I'm a desperate man from now on
How are the mighty fallen
Living to regret every day
There's music to be faced
So I'm leaving this place
Gonna hold out and find my own way
I'm gonna hold out, hold out
Hold out and find my own way
I'm gonna hold out, hold out
Hold out and find my own way
...

    @tallguy1963 Thanks! Glad you liked it. Most of TR's stuff is in heavy rotation on my playlist as well. Tom is up there at the top of my Pantheon, with Joni Mitchell, Kate Bush, The Beatles, et al; artists whose work never grows old or stale or dated for me.

    I was 16 in 79 and this was one of my favorite albums that year. A GREAT song that continues to be on my playlist 30+ years later. Nice slideshow of Tom.
