BABY'S GOT A HOLD ON ME
(Bob Carpenter / Jeff Hanna / Josh Leo)

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band


Sittin' on the front porch, tryin' to keep still
Date is workin' fine, I got a $50 bill
Pretty blue eyes & it isn't hard to see
My baby's got a hold on me

Long blond hair down the middle of her back
She got the keys to her Daddy's Cadillac
Got every little thing that I'm ever gonna need
Baby's got a hold on me

CHORUS:
Got a hold on
Got a hold on me
Got a hold on
Baby's got a hold on me

We got a full tank of gas, lookin' for a thrill
3-day weekend, a lot of time to kill
Put the top down but we're never gonna freeze
'Cause baby's got a hold on me

(chorus)
Hold on!

There's a full moon shinin' on a Carolina night
5 o'clock girl 'cross the interstate line
Gotta catch her waitin' & that's how it's gonna be
'Cause baby's got a hold on me

(chorus x2)

Baby's got a hold on me
Baby's got a hold on me
Hold on, baby's got a hold on me
Hold on, hold on
Baby's got a hold on me
Hold on, ooo hold on
Baby's got a hold on me
Hold on, hold on
Baby's got a hold on me
Hold on...& fade
