lyrics

Lord, you can't hold me down
Lord, you can't hold me down

For two fortnights I was
In your arms
For two fortnights I was
All yours
But two fortnights is
Two too long

You can't hold me down
Lord, you can't hold me down

Said you'd, marry me off the
Las Vegas strip
Champagne for breakfast and,
Whiskey for lunch
A groomsman for hire and an
Organ's song

You can't hold me down
Lord, you can't hold me down

For two fortnights I was
In your arms
For two fortnights I was
All yours
But two fortnights is
Two too long

You can't hold me down
Lord, you can't hold me down

In the morning you'll wake to a
Bed so cold
Life was digging in it was
Crushing my bones
A love tired and tried is no
Love at all

You can't hold me down
Lord, you can't hold me down

For two fortnights I was
In your arms
For two fortnights I was
All yours
But two fortnights is
Two too long

You can't hold me down
Lord, you can't hold me down
