hold out

buddy brown

yeah i'm a hold out

i don't change the way just 'cause it's wednesday

'cause all the trends that we got now will one day go away

but i'm rooted in never will

they call us hold outs

working hard to see our marriage go the distance

so all the kids that we're all raising up here with us

will fear the lord

and i'm praying that the coming generation

will understand the work it took to build this nation

'cause i can shake you with the truth

or i can show you what to do

pick up the bible

turn off the news

and love your neighbor

throw away all those regrets

and call your mama while you can

don't give up just 'cause it seems so hard right now

get back up when you get knocked into the ground

just like a hold out

yeah i'm a hold out

yeah you're a hold out

loving someone who may not deserve your love

so maybe one day all your prayers will wake 'em up

and the blind will see

here's to the hold outs

building up your new small business from the ground

some ten years later it'll hit you hard like

wait
