You had better hold on   Hold on to what you got   You had better hold on   Hold on to what you got      'Cause if you think nobody wants it   Just throw it away and you will see   Someone will have it before you can count   One, two, three, yes, they will, yes, they will      Listen fellas, you know, it's not all the time   That a man can have a good woman   A woman that he can call his very own   A woman who'll stay right there at home   And mind the children while he's gone to work      A woman who'll have his dinner cooked   When he comes home   Where some men make mistakes is when they go out   And stay because they feel that no other man   Wants his woman but him, but listen      If you think no other man wants her   Just throw her away and you will see   Some man will have her before you can count   One, two, three, yes, they will, yes, he will      Ha, ha, listen girls, this goes for you, too   Because you know I've seen so many women   Who've had so many good men in life      Men who would stand by 'em through thick and thin   Men who would go to work everyday and bring home   Their hard earned pay   Men who would give their women anything that their   Little heart desired      Where some women make mistakes   Is when their men go out and let 'em play   They would stay because they felt that no other   Woman wanted him but her, listen      If you think that no other woman wants him   Just pitch him out in the streets and you will see   Some woman will have your man before you can count   One, two, three, yes, you will, yes, you will
