You Keep Me Hanging on Songtext

von The Box Tops

Set me free, why don't you baby?
Get out my life, why don't you baby?
You really don't want me, you just keep me hanging on
You really don't need me, you just keep me hanging on.

Why do you keep coming around, playing with my heart?
Why don't you get out of my life and help me to make a new start?
Let me get over you the way you got over me, help me!

Set me free, why don't you baby?
Get out my life, why don't baby?
You really don't want me child, you just keep me hanging on
You never never never needed me, you just keep me hanging on.

You said when we broke up you just wanted to be friends
Tell me, how can we still be friends when seeing you just breaks my heart again
And there ain't nothing I can do about it.

You really don't need me, you just keep me hanging on
You really don't need me baby, you just keep me hanging on.

Set me free, why don't you baby?
Set me free, why don't you baby?
Get out of my life, why don't you honey? You just keep me hanging on
Hey baby.
