Something's Got a Hold On Me

Something's got a hold on me

An' it won't let go

Ev'ry time I close my eyes

I hear a freight train blow

My papa was a gamblin' man

An' mama tried, tried, tried

Ev'rybody's got their thing,

I like to ride, ride, rideSomething's got a hold on me

Tuggin' on my heels an' toes

Something's got a hold on me

An' it won't let goSomething's got a hold on me

And it won't back down

Ev'ry time you kiss my lips

I hear that highway sound

Carolina looks real good

If I'm in east St. Paul

Oklahoma looks just fine

If I'm in MontrealRepeat ChorusSomething's got a hold on me

An' it calls my shots

I don't want your golden rings

Or your forget-me-nots

I throw out my ramblin' shoes,

Can't get a full night's sleep

Anything I think I got

I know I just can't keepRepeat Chorus
