Frankie hang on
Frankie hang on

Once you hated the war, twice you're going back for more
So addicted to fear darlin' you disappeared
Look your son in the eye be the hero that he needs
Toss a football to him every time you both win
It's a dirty old thrill the familiar can kill
If not you over there back home you know that it will

So, Frankie hang on
Frankie hang on
There's a war here at home darlin' fight it with me
Frankie hang on

I'll sit with you in the bar drink the crawl of your skin
Drive you safe back home me and you up to queuing
Kiss our son a safe night while you shake I'll hold you tight
The troops will survive with you here alive

So, Frankie hang on
Frankie hang on
Let me hold and love you till your find you gone
Frankie hang on

You might think of me drowning in you rough sea
You might take my hand and all we don't understand
For a walk in the sun let it burn till we're done
Frankie don't lose me now, baby you know I'm the only one

So, Frankie hang on
Frankie hang on
There's a war here at home why have you gone?
Frankie hang on
Frankie hang on
I know we'll make it but if we stay strong
Frankie hang on
Frankie hang on
