lyrics

HARD TO HOLD ON TO

every time when you hold my hand and we'd be walking down the street
I'd have to keep my eyes fixed on what's ahead for a bad surprise you might not wanna meet
so we would walk walk and have us a talk talk and every thing seems to be going fine
but I know she's gonna flip I know she's gonna flip seems to be just a matter of time

ooooh ooooh oooh ooh it's hard to hold on to when you got a lot to lose
ooooh ooooh oooh ooh it's hard to let go when you, when you got a lot to lose

the lady she owns me from head to toe and that's ok 'cause toes need lovin' too
but owning and loving are two different things one of which my toes don't think is so cool
so my toes go tingle 'cause they can't mingle about other toes like they used to do
and now the owner of toes deep inside of him knows he's gonna have to say good bye to you

ooooh ooooh oooh ooh it's hard to hold on to when you got a lot to lose
ooooh ooooh oooh ooh it's hard to let go when you, when you got a lot to lose
ooooh ooooh oooh ooh you really got to let him go
ooooh ooooh oooh ooh 'cause when you do then he'll stay true and always come back into your lovin' arms

whistle solo

ooooh ooooh oooh ooh it's hard to hold on to when you got a lot to lose
ooooh ooooh oooh ooh it's hard to let go when you, when you got a lot to lose
ooooh ooooh oooh ooh it's hard to hold on to when you got so much to lose
ooooh ooooh oooh ooh it's hard to let go when you, when you got a lot to lose

about

Jamaram Munich, Germany

It is hard to say for how many bright faces JAMARAM can be accredited for within the previous 20 years of performing live on stage. With approx. 100 shows a year, the number of singing mouths and dancing legs in the audience probably ranges into the hundreds of thousands. Having toured halfway around the world and despite, or maybe because of their longevity, the band is far from retiring! ... more
