You can fool all of the people
And it calls me to remember I tried
Those whom the Lord
has joined with his soul
Let no man put aside The kiss on your lips,
taste of wormwood
So swing low,
Miss Garret,
my friend I'm promising you I'm gonna see it right
through And hold out to the bitterest end
I'm gonna hold out,
hold
out
Hold out to the bitterest end
I fear neither hell nor high water Come October,
this time I'll be gone
There's changes to be made And old debts to be paid
I'm a desperate man from now on
How
are the mighty fallen
Living to regret every day
There's music to be faced
So I'm leaving this place Gonna hold out and find my own way
I'm gonna hold out,
hold out
Hold out and find my own way
I'm gonna hold out,
hold out Hold out and find my own way
I fear
neither hell nor high water
So swing low, Miss Garret, my friend
I'm promising you I'm gonna see it right through
And hold out to the bitterest end I'm gonna hold out,
hold out
Hold out to the bitterest end
I'm gonna hold out, hold out
Hold out to the bitterest end.
