(I'll keep on holdin' on) oh yes I will 
(I'll keep on holdin' on) 
I know that you're the kind of guy, you've got too much pride 
You're scared to love someone, run and hide 
Each and every day, and each and every way 
My love is growin' stronger 
and I know that you can't hold on much longer 
When there's no place left to hide 
I'll still be by your side 
Cause I'll be (waiting) oh yes, sure 'nough 
(Looking for a chance) a chance to make you mine 

(I'll keep on holdin' on) 
I know you're braggin' to your friends that you can't be caught 
Baby, you don't know, so it's time that you were taught 
So love, you'd better plan to make your final stand 
No matter where you run now 
I'll hold on till my will to resist is gone 
Till I get you where I want you 
There, love, I'm gonna want you 
(Waiting) oh yes, sure 'nough 
(Looking for a chance) a chance to make you mine 

(I'll keep on holdin' on) No matter where you run, boy 
(I'll keep on holdin' on) No matter where you hide, boy 
(I'll keep on holdin' on) Oh you'll never get away, boy 
(I'll keep on holdin' on)
