Hold On Pearl Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've got a girl
Her name is Lucy Pearl
I hope that she loves me
But she lives kinda dangerously
Like the time on the mountaintop
Heard a scream and I saw her drop
My heart was heavy I was feeling sad
But she was hanging by a twig laughing like mad
I cried...

[Chorus]
(hold on)
Hold on Pearl (hold on)
Hold on girl (hold on)
Hold on Pearl
It's your Bobby, coming for you

[Verse 2]
Another time she was lagging back
And caught her size 10 foot in a railroad track
The train was coming it was plain to see
She kept laughing at the train and screaming to me
I cried...

[Chorus]
(hold on)
Hold on Pearl (hold on)
Hold on girl (hold on)
Hold on Pearl
It's your Bobby, coming for you

[Verse 3]
They say she don't love me
And that she wants to drive me crazy
But because I love her so
She calls my name and I've got to go
Like the time we were at the beach
And she went swimming way out of reach
I heard a glub-glub and she went down
I knew I couldn't let my little baby drown
I cried...

[Chorus]
(hold on)
Hold on Pearl (hold on)
Hold on girl (hold on)
Hold on Pearl
It's your Bobby, coming for you

[Verse 4]
I jumped right in although I could not swim
[?] got to where she used to be
Then things went dark I started sinking down
I looked around and she was saving me
Saving me
Saving me
She was saving me
I cried...

[Outro]
Hold on Pearl! (hold on)
[?] ever did before! (hold on)
Hold on Pearl!
Or I won't be saving you no more (hold on)
Hold on Pearl! (hold on)
Squeeze me baby and don't let go (hold on)
Hold on Pearl!
Why don't you [?] (hold on)
**drowning sound**
