Hold whatcha got, I'm a-coming home baby
  Hold whatcha got, and I don't mean maybe
  Been a-thinking about you and I'm on my way
  Don't sell the house, and don't wreck the car
  Stay there, honey, right where you are
  Hold whatcha got, I'm a coming home to stay
  
  Well... in my mind I can see
  That's a pretty good sign that I need you
  That's why I can't wait to get back home
  So squeeze yourself real good and tight
  I'll be there before daylight
  If you hold whatcha got, I'm a coming home to stay
  
  Well... when I get back, honey, I ain't leaving
  I been too long, a little too much grieving
  When I get back this time I'm going to stay
  Well we won't fuss and we won't fight
  This time things is gonna be all right
  If you hold whatcha got, I'm a-coming home to stay
