Lyrics Give Him Up - Martha Reeves & The Vandellas

Give Him Up

Give him up
Give him up 'cause, he’ll only hurt you (he'll only hurt you)
Take your love like he did mine
Then he’ll desert you
He’ll leave your heart in pain
Lead you to go insane, he’s unfaithful
You can do everything you can for him
And still he’ll leave 'cause he’s ungrateful
How I can convince you, that he’ll leave on the shelf
And that he’ll never love anybody
He will never love anybody
He will never love anybody
But himself
So-o give him, oh please give him 'cause
He just won’t do right
Let him go, you got to let him go
'Cause he won’t treat you right
You’ll go to him one day
And he’ll turn and walk away
He’s untrue
On second thought, oh don’t give him up
'Cause I know I’ll take him back whenever you do
(I'll take him back whenever you give him up)
Even though he’s done me wrong
(I'll take him back whenever you give him up)
I loved him oh too long
