John Mellencamp - Hand To Hold On To lyrics

You can laugh and joke and make fun of your friends, Spin in the middle when the troubles begin, Take it nice and easy and always pretend That you're cool.........so cool..........so cool. Say I'm alone and I'm wild and I will not be tamed", Talk like a jerk or an educated brain, Be an old girl drivin' the young boys insane, Be a joker, a preacher....it does not matter. Chorus: Everyone needs a hand to hold on to Everyone needs a hand to hold on to Don't need to be no strong hand Don't need to be no rich hand Everyone just needs a hand to hold on to Havin' good luck with your financial situation, Play the ponies, be the president of the united nations, Go to work and be a hollywood stud, Drive your 4 wheel drive right into the mud, yeah Repeat chorus And then those hours when you're alone, And there's nobody there except yourself, I know it.........you wanna pick up the phone, And say, "talk to me, talk to me, somebody please Talk to me!" yeah! Guitar solo Ohh, yeah! Chorus Repeat chorus
