You've Got Me On a String |
You’ve got me on a string\nI don’t mean a thing to you\nI’m holding on to no one\nI’m a long time lover\nAnd my long time love is gone\nIf my man beats me, robs me blind\nLong as he don’t leave me, I don’t mind\nI would beg and I would crawl\nThough it does no good at all\nMy man’s been gone so long\nAnd I keep holding on\nAnd if he needed me, I’d be there\nNo matter how he mistreated me\nI don’t care\nI would get down on my knees\nThough it does no good to please\nMy man’s been gone for so long\nAnd I keep holding on\nBroken windows, boarded doorways\nChoose your prison\nWhen I’m with him\nI’m a fool for loving you\nAnd well I know\nHow the head says — no\nAnd the heart says\nGo down on your knees, woman\nAnd keep on holding on |
