Lyrics
Hold whatcha got, I'm a-coming home baby
Hold whatcha got, and I don't mean maybe
Been a-thinking about you and I'm on my way
Don't sell the house, and don't wreck the car
Stay there, honey, right where you are
Hold whatcha got, I'm a coming home to stay
Well in my mind I can see
That's a pretty good sign that I need you
That's why I can't wait to get back home
So squeeze yourself real good and tight
I'll be there before daylight
If you hold whatcha got, I'm a coming home to stay
Well when I get back, honey, I ain't leaving
I been too long, a little too much grieving
When I get back this time I'm going to stay
Well we won't fuss and we won't fight
This time things is gonna be all right
If you hold whatcha got, I'm a-coming home to stayDemo Videos
