It's true you have me twisted 'round your fingers,
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-uh-uh
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 on growing,
'cause your love keeps to showing.
Just enough to keep me a-hanging on
Uh-uh-uh
Just enough to keep me a-hanging on.

A love that's 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-uh-uh
Just enough to keep me a-hanging on
Hm, hm, uh-uh-uh
Just enough to keep me a-hanging on.
