My Blueberry Nights movie - Eyes on the Prize lyrics

rate me

Song by Mavis Staples<br /><br>

Paul and Silas, bound in jail<br>

Had no money for to go their bail<br>

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on<br>

Hold on, (hold on), hold on, (hold on)<br>

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on!<br>

Hold on, (hold on), hold on, (hold on)<br>

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on!<br>

<br>

Paul and Silas began to shout<br>

Doors popped open, and they walked out<br>

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on<br>

Hold on, (hold on), hold on, (hold on)<br>

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on!<br>

<br>

Well, the only chains that we can stand<br>

Are the chains of hand in hand<br>

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on<br>

Got my hand on the freedom plow<br>

Wouldn't take nothing for my journey now<br>

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on!<br>

Hold on, (hold on), hold on, (hold on)<br>

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on!<br>

Hold on, (hold on), hold on, (hold on)<br>

Keep your Eyes on the Prize, hold on!<br>

<br>

Hold on, (hold on), hold on, (hold on)<br>

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on!<br>

Hold on, (hold on), hold on, (hold on)<br>

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on!<br>

<br>

(Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on)<br>

(Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on)<br>

(Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on)<br>

<br>
