Baby, hold on to me
Whatever will be, will be
The future is ours to see
So, baby hold on to me

Baby, what's these things
You've been sayin' about me
Behind my back?
Is it true you might want a better life?
Is it true you think
That these things are lies, now?

Think about it, baby
I'm gonna take you to the top

So baby, hold on to me
Whatever will be, will be
(Cause the), the future is ours to see
When you hold on to me

Hey-ey, baby
You know the future's lookin' brighter
Every mornin', when I get up
Don't be thinkin' 'bout what's not enough now, baby
Just be thinkin' 'bout what we got

Think of all my love, now
I'm gonna give you all I got

So baby, hold on to me
Whatever will be, will be
The future is ours to see
When you hold on to me

Oh-oh, rich man, poor man, now
Really don't mean all that much
Mama's always told you, girl
That money can't buy you love

So baby, hold on to me
Whatever will be, will be
The future is ours to see
When you hold on to me

Yeah, yeah
Baby, hold on to me
Whatever will be, will be
The future is ours to see
When you hold on to me

I say, uh! Hold on
Uh, huh! Hold on to me tighter
I'm never gonna leave ya, now
Can't you please believe now?
Never gonna let you go
So, hold on to me tighter

Baby, hold on to me
Whatever will be, will be
The future is ours to see
When you hold on to me

(Baby) Baby, hold on to me
(Baby) Whatever will be, will be
(Baby) The future is ours to see
(Baby) When you hold on to me

Hold on!
