Hold Back Lyrics - Dirty Work - Rolling Stones

Hear the voice of experience 

A word from the wise 

Grab opportunity 

While you're alive 

'Cos if you follow the crowd 

'Cos if you act like a coward 

You'll end up yelling out loud 

Hold back 

You'll regret it someday 

Choke on that 

Don't let it pass you by 

Hold back 

You better seize the hour

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

You look in your history books 

If you delve in the past 

Stalin and Roosevelt, yeah 

Both took their chances 

And George grasped the nettle 

It's do or dare 

From the banks of the Delaware 

Yeah, don't hold back 

Trust your gut reaction 

Be bold, be bold, baby 

If you don't take chances 

You won't make advances 

Hold back, yeah 

Don't matter if you ain't so good looking 

If you ain't sharp as a blade 

Don't be afraid 

Photos 

Don't hold back 

Life is passing you by 

Choke on that 

Keep on moving, keep on moving 

Gotta run with the crowd, yeah 

You'll end up in the madhouse 

Shouting the cold walls down 

Yeah, don't hold back 

Hold back 

You're messing with your life 

Hold back 

Yeah, life goes by fast sometimes 

Be bold, be bold, be bold, be bold, baby 

You're wasting your time 

I want your attention 

So pin back your ears 

I've been climbing this tree of promises 

For over forty years 

Your vision get broken 

And bust on the ground 

So watch me, watch me rebound 

Yeah, don't hold back 

You're wrecking your life 

Choke on that 

Don't hold back 

No don't hold back 

You're messing with your life
