<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Hang on to her, boy<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With all your might<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She’s got so much to give<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you treat her right<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She’s a classic <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perfect in every way<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of a kind<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now that’s what my daddy would say<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And when I turned 18 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He smiled at me<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Walked outside and tossed me the keys<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And he said<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Hang on to her, boy<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With all your might<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She’s got so much to offer<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you treat her right”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a world where things are changing fast<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ain’t too many things that are made to last<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hang on to her, boy<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They don’t make them like that any more”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She’s a beauty<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The kind you don’t see every day<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yeah, she’s timeless<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well, that’s what her daddy would say<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And arm and arm<\/p>\n\n\n\n
AS they walked down the aisle<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He gave me her hand<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And said with a smile<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Hang on to her, boy<\/p>\n\n\n\n
with all your might<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She’s got so much to give<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you treat her right<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a world where things are changing fast<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ain’t too many things that are made to last<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hang on to her, boy<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They don’t make them like that anymore”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lyrics to the song “They don’t make them<\/p>\n\n\n\n
like that anymore” composed by Boy Howdy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sometimes a simple song such as above<\/p>\n\n\n\n
can invoke deep sentiments within me;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
might that be the case with you?—<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I would not be surprised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
