Well, she's sitting right there, 'neath a chain link fence.
She's down at the park with the rest of her friends.
And she looks so pretty but she's only sixteen...
Didn't know that when she smiled at me.
Now, the boys are hunched over their electric guitars.
I'm lying in the grass out beside my car.
I followed her down to the Dixie Freeze...
Now, hold on. Hold on.
Hold onto me...

Sweet girl...
Don't let go for the world.

'Cause I'm not from here,
And I'm afraid that I might never see you again...

Now, it's the end of the summer and I'm just twenty-one.
I've been in California for the last two months.
And there weren't no girls like her out there.
Her boyfriend don't like me
And I think that's fair...

'Cause I'm sitting right here on a chain link fence.
And when she smiles at me gonna take my chance.
Say, I know the show's over but I wish you wouldn't leave.
Hold on. Hold on.
Hold onto me...

Sweet girl...
Don't let go for the world.

'Cause I'm not from here,
And I'm afraid that I might never see you again...
