Elroy was an old man And I was only thirteen But he was my best friend And he could make a guitar sing On hot summer evenings I'd play along with him Settin' up on his front porch While the june bugs beat on the screen and I'd say Hold on Hold on Elroy Hold on Elroy - run that by me again The ring finger of his left hand Was buried out in texas From the time when his work glove Got hung in a cotton gin But it didn't slow him down none He could play like lightning He'd fly through a breakdown And then sit back and grin - when I'd say Hold on Hold on Elroy Hold on Elroy - run that by me again I said "I've been workin' on that lick you played last week I think it goes like this He said, "Sakes alive, son, I think you've flat got her down" Now you can work on this" And I said Hold on Hold on Elroy Hold on Elroy - run that by me again Now the years have gone by I play along with the best now And owe that old man For this good life of mine When his heart was failin' I flew back home to see him We set up on his front porch And I said one last time Won't you Hold on Hold on Elroy Hold on Elroy - run that by me again
