Verse 1:I worked hard, baby, night and dayThe things I had somebody took awayThey took away everything I earnedBut there's one lesson that'a I have learnedChorus:You got to hold on, little girl, to what you've got (4X)Verse 2:I been pushed and I been knocked downBut I picked myself right back up off the groundAnd baby there's one thing that I have foundFighting's the only way's to stand your groundChorus:You got to hold on, little girl, to what you've got (4X)Bridge:I've been used, I've been abusedI've had, baby, my regretsI've been lost, I paid the costBut there's one thing I ain't gonna forgetVerse 3:I've heard some hard lines, I've seen some cryin' timesBad luck and trouble they been friends of mineGot to stand straight and stare right at your face (fate?)And play it hard before it's too lateChorus:You got to hold on, little girl, to what you've got (8X)
