Carly Simon - Hold On To What You've Got lyrics

Your rating:

You had better hold on
Hold on to what you’ve got
You had better hold on
Hold on to what you’ve got

‘Cause if you think
Nobody wants it
Just throw it away
And you will see
Somebody will have it
Before you can count 1-2-3
Yes they will
Yes they will

(Spoken)
You women out there
Boy, it's hard to find a good and sensitive man
A man who loves you for who you are
Who really appreciates you
And you know this guy
I mean you start up with a new man
And something you don't know about him
Just might hurt you
So stick with your man
Don't ever take him for granted

‘Cause if you think
Nobody wants it
Just throw it away
And you will see
Some woman will have your man
Before you can count 1-2-3
Yes she will
Yes she will

(Spoken)
Same goes for you men
There are so many women out there 
That just want to break your heart
You got a woman that plays fair
That you can trust?
And hey, she's fun to be with
Don't expect any one woman to fulfill every one of your needs
They're only human too
Besides which, it's cooler for you to be faithful

And if you think
Nobody wants her
Just let her out on the street
And you will see
Some other man will have her
Before you can count 1-2-3
Yes he will
Yes he will

You take love for granted
And it’s gone like a bandit
And this loneliness cuts like a knife

When you see what you’ve lost
And it’s already cost
The one you could love your whole life

You'd better hold on
Hold on to what you've got
You had better hold on
Hold on to what you've got
