Promises

Rough kid!
New York City
Don't care about much
Ain't it a pity
He met this girl
On the far side of town

Young girl
Grown up in a hurry
She tells her mama
Please don't worry
I met this boy
On the far side of town

He's got this girl
In his arms
And then she says
Hold on
Hold on

They're not too sure
But it feels all right
Hold on
Hold on

They just don't care
If it lasts forever
Hold on
Hold on

Got no use for
Promises
Heat's too young for
Tears
What's the use in
Promises
Broken through the years

Sliding down
Back seat of a Chevy
Skirt's so tight
Ooh, lookin' pretty
Hearts pounding a back beat
They were too young
And in love

He's got this girl
In his arms
And then she says
Hold on
Hold on

They're not too sure
But it feels all right
Hold on
Hold on

They just don't care
If it lasts forever
Hold on
Hold on

Got no use for
Promises
Heat's too young for
Tears
What's the use in
Promises
Broken through the years

Got no use for
Promises
Heat's too young for
Tears
Tell me, what's the use in
Promises
Broken through the years

Tell me, what's the use in
Promises
Broken through the years

Tell me, what's the use in
Promises?
Promises?
Promises?
