Working at the 601 you're tryin' to get it done

But mr. man keeps calling

He won't let you have no fun

The telephone keeps ringing

Yeah it's ringing all the time

And he won't stop until you drop

Sometimes you feel you're losing your mind



When you feel the world is coming down on you

There's only one thing that you really should remember to do

Keep holding on

Keep holding on, yeah

Better days are coming

Just as this one's surely gone

Keep holding on

Keep holding on, yeah

Things will be much better

But you've got to keep holding on



Everyone keeps talkin' talkin'

So much all the time

About things they don't know, man

Yeah i swear it blows my mind

How can you lend an open ear

To such widely spread disease

So polluted, executed

With no thought

And spoken with ease



When you feel the words creep inside of you

Just remember they mean nothing and you'll know what to do

Keep holding on

Keep holding on, yeah

A better day is coming

Just as this one's surely gone

Keep holding on

Keep holding on, yeah

Things will be much better

But you've got to keep holding on



I know life can be hard

And sometimes it brings you down

Just remember when you feel this way

You can make it if you try and you hold on one more day

But you've got to be so strong

And you've got to keep holdin' on



People talkin' never stoppin'

Tryin' to mess with you

Keep holdin' on, keep holdin' on

You don't need to listen

Baby make your own decision

Keep holdin' on

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah



Keep holdin' on

Keep holdin' on

A better day is coming-
