Ely Joe Hold On Lyrics

Hold On Lyrics

1)



Reeling cross the mossy swamp



Texarkana Louisiana listening to the engine thump



Nerves are shattered, what does it matter



if the rain pitter patters down the tree stump



2)



Looks like the rivers low



Johnny and Lindy ain't they windy listening to the radio



The rivers steamin', what are you dreamin'



Leaning half way out the window







Roll Roll Roll We're rollin' on



Blurred barbed wire out the window



Turn around and you'll be gone



3)



Headed up east about broke



In my tuxedo, Holy Toledo, choking on the factory smoke



There go the Great Lakes I got a headache



And I ain't trying to make no joke







Roll Roll Roll We're rollin' on



Blurred barbed wire out the window



Turn around and you'll be gone



4)



Now we gotta pay our toll



New York City, ain't she pretty, blazing like a thunderbolt



Nerves are shattered what's it matter



If the rain pitter patters down the manhole







Roll Roll Roll We're rollin' on



Blow Blow Blow wind blow alone



Hold on honey We're rollin' on



Roll Roll Roll We're rollin' on
