"(You Keep Me) Hangin' On" lyrics

"(You Keep Me) Hangin' On"

It's true you have me twisted 'round your finger
It seems that's where I belong
You know how to hold me, to thrill me and control me
Just enough to keep me a-hanging on, uh-huh-huh
Just enough to keep me a-hanging on

My heart is like a yo-yo on a string
I'm tied to you right or wrong
My love keeps a growing
'Cause your love keeps a showing
Just enough to keep me a-hanging on, uh-huh-huh
Just enough to keep me a-hanging on

A love as strong as mine
Will make me do most anything
Like hiding tears and heartaches
And dreaming silly dreams

You've got me when you want me
You keep stringing me along
Just enough to keep me a-hanging on, uh-huh-huh
Just enough to keep me a-hanging on

Mm, mm, mm... uh-huh-huh
Just enough to keep me a hanging on
