Good for Nothing Lyrics by Solomon Burke & De Dijk

Hold On Tight

0

I'm hard up, broke and busted
And I never hold a job
I know I'm bound for trouble
And I won't ever reach the top
I sure ain't mother's finest
I always find a way to slack
If you lend me twenty dollars
Man, you won't ever get it back
Don't think I could ever change
If I did it wouldn't last
I guess it's too much a hassle
I'm just getting nowhere fast
I'm just a good for nothing
Just a zero out of ten
Baby, don't you know I'm able
To love you like nobody can
I would keep you waiting
But I couldn't wait myself
All I think about is me
Now I'm putting the blame on someone else
I mess it all up big time
Would not admit when I'm through
When you give me your love, baby
I don't know really what to do
Don't think I could ever change
If I did it wouldn't last
I guess it's too much of a hassle
I'm just getting nowhere fast
I'm just a good for nothing
Just a zero out of ten
Baby, don't you know I'm able
To love you like nobody can
Don't think I could ever change
If I did it wouldn't last
I guess I'm too much of a hassle
I'm getting nowhere fast, fast, fast
I'm just a good for nothing
Just a zero out of ten
Oh but baby, don't you know I'm able
To love you like nobody can
But baby, don't you know I'm able
To love you like nobody can
Love you like nobody can
Love you like nobody can
Love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you
To the very end, just like nobody can
I'm still good for nothing
But I love you baby, like nobody can
