1. AMERICAN GIRLS

I know how to treat a lady
Who knows how to treat her man
I’ve been in love one or two times
I made out the best that I can
I’ve been all around the world and back
And here is what I got to say
The ladies I love are livin in the U.S.A.

Know I’m talking about American girls
They got what I need
American girls that’s what I want
merican girls
There ain’t no better, boy, and that’s no lie

She takes you home to meet her daddy
He looks you right in the eye
He says now tell me your intensions, boy
You make your reply
I’m a man of honour, my thoughts are pure
And you can bet your life
I won’t even kiss her, unless I’m gonna make her my wife

Oh, I’m talking about American girls
They got what I need
American girls, what I want
American girls

I’m talking about American girls
Said I need
What I want American girls
The ladies I love are in the U.S.A
I want those American girls
Got to have those American girls
Yea I love those American girls

2. HOLD ON

Music holds the secret
To know what can make you whole
It’s not just a game of notes
It’s the sounds inside your soul
The magic of the melody runs through you like a stream
The notes that play flow through your head like a dream

I sing this song for the common man
And for the people in despair
I bring my song into the world
And I sing it everywhere
The simple truth lies waiting here
For everyone to share
So hold on, and I will take you there
Hold on, and I will take you there

The daily routine takes your soul
Lost without a trace
It holds you down, and turns you round
And puts you in your place
Another day, another dollar, another pretty face
Another chance to lose yourself in the endless race

[Chorus:]
Hold on, hold on to your dreams
Hold on, even though it seems
Everyone around you has their little schemes
Listen to your heart, and hold on to your dreams

Can’t you feel the magic, feel it everywhere
Can’t you hear the music, there’s something in the air
There’s a celebration, deep within a song
Celebrate this feeling, you know it can’t be wrong

[Chorus]

Hold on (x4)

Caught up in the routine, you’ve got to break it
Time won’t wait for us, we got to make it
Fate gives you the chance
You got to take it, take it,

Hold on (x6)
