Good preacher talked to me and he smiled He said come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile And after once in your life you're alone But you ain't gotta die, there's no time for the phone I just gotta get a message to you Hold on, hold on One more hour and my life will be through Hold on, hold on I don't remember no heartbeat But if I broke a heart then won't you tell the wrong song And for once in my life I'm alone And I gotta let her know, just in time before I go I just gotta get a message to you Hold on, hold on One more hour and my life will be through Hold on, hold on Well I laughed but that didn't hurt And it's only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt And now I'm crying but deep down inside Well I did it to him, now it's my turn to die I just gotta get a message to you Hold on, hold on One more hour and my life will be through Hold on, hold on I just gotta get a message to you Hold on, hold on One more hour and my life will be through Hold on, hold on Yep
