Hold Me Down Lyrics

Don't be afraid of what you've been told

You were so young then and now you're old

Don't pay no attention to the swarm of bees

They're not stinging today

Just swimming in the breeze

Somebody hold me down

Someone's got to keep me on the ground

Keep your eyes on my eyes

and your hand under my chin

Cause I'll be slipping out with no way in

The dead don't know that they're dead

And the living don't know that they're alive

You can feel it in their touch

They don't want for much

Just liquor for their cup

Quarters for their eyes

Somebody hold me down

Someone's got to keep me on the ground

Keep your eyes on my eyes

and your hand under my chin

Cause I'll be slipping out with no way in

Somebody hold me down

Someone's got to keep me on the ground

Keep your eyes on my eyes

and your hand under my chin

Cause I'll be slipping out with no way in
