Texty: Jean Shepard. Hangin' On.
It's true, you have me twisted around 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 hangin' on
Just enough to keep me a hangin' 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 hangin' on
Just enough to keep me a hangin' 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 where you want me
You keep stringing me along
Just enough to keep me a hangin' on
Just enough to keep me a hangin' on
Just enough to keep me a hangin' on
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 hangin' on
Just enough to keep me a hangin' 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 hangin' on
Just enough to keep me a hangin' 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 where you want me
You keep stringing me along
Just enough to keep me a hangin' on
Just enough to keep me a hangin' on
Just enough to keep me a hangin' on
Shepard, Jean
