Working at the 6O1 you're tryin' to get it done
But Mr. Man keeps calling, he won't let you have no fun
The telephone keeps ringing, yeah it's ringing all the time
And he won't stop until you drop
Sometimes you feel you're losing your mind
When you feel the world is down on you
There's only one thing that you really should remember to do
Keep holding on, keep holding on, yeah
Better days are coming just as this one's surely gone
Keep holding on, keep holding on, yeah
Things will be much better but you've got to keep holding on
Everyone keeps talkin', talkin' so much all the time
About things they don't know man, yeah I swear it blows my mind
How can you lend an open ear to such widely spread disease
So polluted, executed with no thought and spoken with ease
When you feel the words creep inside of you
Just remember they mean nothing and you'll know what to do
Keep holding on, keep holding on, yeah
A better day is coming just as this one's surely gone
Keep holding on, keep holding on, yeah
Things will be much better but you've got to keep holding on
I know life can be hard and sometimes it bring you down
Just remember when you feel the way
You can make it if you try and you hold on one more day
But you've got to be so strong and you've got to keep holdin' on
People talkin' never stoppin', tryin' to mess with you
Keep holdin' on, keep holdin' on
You don't need to listen baby make your own decision
Keep holdin' on, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keep holdin' on, keep holdin' on
A better day is coming just as this one's surely gone
Keep holdin' on, keep holding on, yeah
We could come together if we all
Keep holding on, keep holding on
Keep holding on, keep holding on, keep holding on
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Keep holding on
