Lyrics Short End Of The Stick - Loleatta Holloway

Ah, ah, ah

Holding on
I think I gotta love y'all
I'm holding on
I think I gotta love y'all

You've had me back from the start
So hungry for love, I'll play the part
Telling me all the things I wanted to hear
So afraid of losing you, my dear
And you, baby

I got the short end of the stick, ooh-ooh
Ooh, baby, you make me wanna quit, ah-ah
I got the short end of the stick, ooh-ooh
Ooh, baby, you make me wanna quit, ah-ah

Holding on
Think I gotta love y'all (think I gotta love y'all)
I'm holding on (I'm holding on)
I think I gotta love y'all
I'm holding on (holding on)
Think I gotta love y'all (think I gotta love y'all)
Holding on (holding on)
Ah, ah, eh, eh

Just like a fish, you're gonna lie
You reel me in that you need your time
I had some doubts, but the choice is mine
You've got my heart now you wanna take my mind, ooh

I got the short end of the stick now
Ooh, baby, you make me wanna quit, ah-ah
I got the short end of the stick, baby
Ooh, baby, you make me wanna quit

Oh, I'm holding on (holding on)
Think I gotta love y'all (think I gotta love y'all)
I'm holding on (holding on)
I gotta love y'all (think I gotta love y'all)
Ah, I'm holding on (holding on)
Think I gotta love y'all (think I gotta love y'all)
I'm holding on (holding on)
Ah, ah, ah, ah, yeah

Oh, with me baby
I got the short end of the stick, baby
Ooh, baby, you make me wanna quit, nah-ah
I got the short end of the stick, baby
Ooh, baby, you make me wanna quit

Oh, I'm holding on (holding on)
Think I gotta love y'all (think I gotta love y'all)
I'm holding on (holding on)
I think I gotta love y'all (think I gotta love y'all)
Ah, I'm holding on (holding on)
Think I gotta love y'all (think I gotta love y'all)
Holding on (holding on)
Ah, ah, ah, ah, yeah

Holding on
I gotta love y'all
Holding on
I gotta love y'all
Ah, ah, ah, oh, no
