Apron Strings

G
If you've got a love
               C
If you've got affection
               G
If you've got a shelter
              D
On a rainy day

G
If you're feeling up
                C
Let's you keep on dancing
               G
And even once you're down
        D   G
Will you like to be around


Let's have a little
G          Bb        C       D
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on 
G                  F
Hold on to her apron strings 
C            D
Real lovin' ain't anything
G                  F
Hold on to her apron strings
C            D
Keep her straight, she'll never sing



Let me understand
Why you're not so happy 
When she holds your hand
And you feel it coming through

When you're in the bed
Let's you know she's alright
Take her by the hand
And let her know you care

Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on 
Hold on to her apron strings 
Real lovin' ain't anything
Hold on to her apron strings
Keep her straight, she'll never escape

Inst.

Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on 
Hold on baby, hold on baby, hold on baby, hold on baby

Hold on to her apron strings
Real lovin' ain't anything
Hold on to her apron strings
Keep her straight, she'll never escape

Hold on to her apron strings
Real lovin' ain't anything 
Hold on to her apron strings
Give her love, she'll never escape 

Hold on to her apron strings
Real lovin' ain't anything
Hold on to her apron strings
Keep her straight, she'll never escape

Hold on to her apron strings
Real lovin' ain't anything
Hold on to her apron strings
Keep her straight, she'll never escape

Hold on to her apron...
