It's true  you got me  wrapped around you finger
Seems to me like that's where I belong
You know you know how to hold me
You know how to thrill me
And you know how to control me makin' me like it

[Chorus]
Just enough  to keep me hangin' on
Just enough  to keep me hangin' on

My heart  (pause) is like a yo yo string
I'm tied to you  tied to you right or wrong
My love  keeps right on growing  and your love just keeps right on showing making me like it

[Chorus]

A heart as true as mine
Can make you do most anything
Like hiding tears and heartaches
And dreaming those old silly dreams

Oh sweetheart you got me
Got me where you want me
You just keep stringing me along

[Chorus:Repeat x3]

Just enough  to keep me hangin on
Just enough  to keep me hangin on
