about

Drawing inspiration from the 1970's Hang In There, Baby cat poster (often considered the original meme), "Hang In There, Baby" is a rockin' number from Justin Latam & The Stride that kicks off the second side of their vinyl record "Stride On".

lyrics

We’re just tryin’ to hang in there But our hands are so tired, yeah
What can we take? We need a break- A break from all this insanity
We’re just tryin’ to hang in there- Startin’ to feel the wear and tear
Oh I don’t know, I might let go- Or should I keep on a-keepin’ on?

This might sound crazy, yeah yeah yeah
But ya know what saves me, yeah yeah yeah
That cat poster on the wall when it says to me encouragingly…

We’re just tryin’ to hang in there- But barely holdin’ on again
Oh I might slip, might loose my grip- Startin’ to sound like relief to me
We’re just tryin’ to hang in thereDon’t look down now unless you dare
This apathy feels so heavy And it is startin’ to drag me down

Hang in there, baby -Hang in there (keep on hangin’ on)
Hang in there (don’t let go, no no no) Hang in there, baby
Hang in there (keep on hangin on) Hang in there (don’t let go no no no
Hang in there, baby – Hang in there…
