Chain Link Fence - Lucero

Well she’s sitting right there on the 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

Hold on, hold on, hold on to 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 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 the 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 on to 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
