Lyrics

Bless my heart, bless my soul Didn't think I'd make it to 22 years old There must be someone up above Saying, "Come on, Brittany, you got to come on up" You got to hold on Yeah, you got to hold on So, bless my heart and bless yours too I don't know where I'm gonna go, don't know what I'm gonna do Well, must be somebody up above Saying, "Come on, Brittany, you got to come on up" You got to hold on Yeah, you got to hold on Yeah, you got to wait Hey, you got to wait But, I don't wanna wait I don't wanna wait So, bless my heart, bless my mind I got so much to do, I ain't got much time So, must be someone up above Saying, "Come on, girl, yeah, you got to get back up" You got to hold on Yeah, you got to hold on Yeah, you got to wait I don't wanna wait Well, I don't wanna wait No, I don't wanna wait You got to hold on You got to hold on You got to hold on You got to hold on
