Hold On Loosely Lyrics by 38 Special

[XtrAvaGent46]

Without A Paddle ...

[biggians]

Okay, the story of my epic quest to find this song. I was watching Without a Paddle, but I didnt know that was what the movie was called. so I heard this song come on and I searched "do do do do dooo do" in google trying to find it, failed miserably. then I heard the line in the movie "I dont have to outrun the bear, I just have to outrun you." I searched that in google, found hte name of the movie, searched for the movies soundtrack, and picked the right song first try. So. Worth. It.

[67phantasm]

with out a paddle

[devax1986]

Some people may not know this, but this was originally written for the band survivor, and later .38 special got a hold of it and the write process began. The rest is history!

[wiserthantomorrow]

Six people held on too tightly.

[33115metal]

5 people think this song deserves better than 240p

[Allenj3]

5 people lost control

[walkersmadhouse153]

@sukay2249 Yeah I've seen it. I just say joe dirt cause its a movie I basically grew up with.

[usmarines1944]

best doritoes commercial ever!!  but i came for the music \m/

[ugotnoscoped14]

classic all the way

[walkersmadhouse153]

This song best sparks to me when I watch Joe Dirt.

[sukay2249]

[schmittjoshua]

[FLAMINGSTRINGZ]

[DEVILWOMANXOX]

AWESOME SONG!!!

[bananaram69]

4 people cling too tightly.

[Alexa090910]

never has words been sung so truly.

[MrDonsr57]

I like the song, however, the lyric feed is too slow. Unless you absolutely know it verbatim, it's no fun to sing along with. JS

[80sGlamrock1]

haha nice 420 likes

[zekezarate]

I believe one of the band members was going thru a Divorce....

[The666Reaper1]

1 person held on too tight and lost control

[usvetone]

Now they are really telling it like it is. Hold on loosely! Because if you hold on too tight both of you will crash and burn.

[twiztidlife66]

I love my parents. They got me into listening to all the older bands when i was about 6 (AC/DC, Jimi, Sabbath, .38 Special, Crue, Ratt,ect....) I wish all parents would do that so that kids would actually enjoy the music for the music not just guys singing about fucking a girl or snorting a line or some shit like that

[krisnelvidanes]

hey..i just rape the replay!!!!

[Kangaroo846]

really!!! one dislike... i mean seriously does some asshole just go around and hit the dislike button just cause its there? this is a good song and if you don't like it don't listen to it.

[JETZcorp]

I'd heard this song on the radio a few times but never bothered really listening to the lyrics. When I finally paid attention to it, I couldn't believe it! It perfectly describes the way I feel a relationship ought to be handled, because somehow I've become paranoid about stifling a girlfriend and, well, clinging so tightly that I lose control.

Now, all I need is to get over this five-year (and counting) period of alone-ness I've been going through and find someone to hold on loosely to...

[WickedChaos911]

Wow. How have I went seventeen years of my life having never heard this song?

[kfilips]

@WickedChaos911 - Celebrate your victory! It took me 3 marriages before I finally figured 'it' out and today, like you, I finally 'heard' this song correctly and am celebrating 'it' with the love of my LIFE!

[Jaskor73]

Great song yes......Tho I dont think it should of been almost 5 mins long....

[moogyboy6]

Summer of 1981, Columbus, Ohio. You and your buddies are 17, cruising down North High Street in "Cowboy Dave's" '69 Olds Cutlass, with a load of contraband Gennessee Cream Ale in the trunk and the secondhand Spark-O-Matic 8 track AM/FM stereo in the dashboard tuned to Q-FM-96. This song comes on. It's not your favorite--you're more into Grand Funk, Ted Nugent, Skynyrd--but it seems RIGHT at that particular moment.

[Duddie82]

This song brings me back to the 80's, Dating this one girl, I played it over and over,, LOL,, It is a good song.

[nickjonasroxsox]

without a paddle theme song <3

[djjku]

[fabguy44]

Thanks for the posting. Yepper...Been there...done that. Check out the 38 Special song with lyrics "If I'd Been The One'... another powerful song.

[REAltmeyer]

life lesson, my sister told me when i was young.

[snoozer998]

You guys know what I'm talking about: You have a few drinks, hear this song, and can't help but think back to the relationships that might have been.

[nygrl0890]

I LOVE THIS SONG!<3

[3MusketeersMovies]

One person has no idea what love is

[KristenBooNinja]

@3MusketeersMovies Or they accidentally hit the wrong button.

[JBirdAndMusic]

One person hasn't had a realationship . . .

[cbt1]

Uh got someone you love... listen to this and keep her!

[bigpeppyk9]

Thanks for posting this. 38 Special is one of my home town bands, like Lynard Skynard. This song rocks!

[PatriotTK421]

You ever see those guys in poker tournaments who are standing up, begging "just one time" because almost all of the outs are gone and they're chances are terrible? They know the odds are against them. But sometimes that "just one time" actually comes in and saves their butt. I'm trying to hold on loosely. But this looks like goodbye! Didn't know what I had until it was gone, and I'm 38 years old. (38 Special) Weird. Please, come back to me baby. Just one time!

[MrVinny53]

what a great song and guitar

[CattVonD33]

Give her some space bro,  she's choking, sufercating under the love your given there is no reason to call her that many times The farther you are away, the closer she will come. just don't be an idiot and that will work 4sure

[14Smartiez]

[MsGreenieBean]

This is wonderful. i can truthfuly say that 38. special changed the world. when i hear this song these beautiful warm memories hug me.

[blake9520]

man, the message in this song changed my life. I've heard this song on the radio many times, but now i finally see the piece of good advice in the lyrics.

[alfamax4562]

Took me many years to figure that out... Kids beware... Hold on loosely, but don't let go! Best advice ever...

[flamerabbit1987]

OMG! "Rad" green font against that black, as they would say in the 80's! Very easy on the eyes, buddy.

[prober45]

good stuff! Not quite Skynryd but them Southern boys know how to rock!

[BrutalChickenn]

[ravensunmoondove]

Wow, I especially like "sentimental fool" part, that makes a lot of sense for the type of ppl that cant let go of an ex "who's way over them" and end up loosing what could have been a new reality.

[AGWStudios]
