If You Would Hold My Hand

This world is such a fucking shitty place
Just makes me wanna go and hide away
But I’d stand smiling in the light of day
If you would hold my hand
I know the cops are trying to track me down
Smart move for me would be to just skip town
I’d be brave and just stick around
If you would hold my hand
If you would hold my hand, I could fight the cops
And then die smiling when I got shot
If you would hold my hand I know that I could be a better man
Finally find a way to rise above the lowdown world I’ve been living in
I could do anything anything at all
If you would hold my hand
If you would hold my hand
When you’re inside they keep you locked down tight
No chance of escape, you may as well not try
But I could get put in and bust out same night
If you would hold my hand
I’ve never giving anything much thought
Just try to get by with the wits I got
But I could be an Einstein, I shit you not
If you would hold my hand
If you would hold my hand, I could fight the cops
And then die smiling when I got shot
If you would hold my hand I know that I could be a better man
Finally find a way to rise above the lowdown world I’ve been living in
I could do anything anything at all
If you would hold my hand
I could do anything at all
If you would hold my hand
If you would hold my hand
