You Keep Me Hangin' On Lyrics
Set me free, why don't you babe?
Get out my life, why don't you babe? Oooh
You really don't want me, you just keep me hangin' on
You really don't need me, you just keep me hangin' on
Why do you keep comin' around playin' with my heart?
Why don't you get out of my life
And let me try to make a new start?
Let me get over you the way you've gotten over me
Set me free, why don't you babe?
Get out my life, why don't you now? Oooh
You really don't want me, you just keep me hangin' on
You really don't need me, you just keep me hangin' on
You said when we broke up you just wanna be friends
But how can we still be friends
When seein' you only breaks my heart again?
There ain't nothin' I can do about it
You know I really love - set me free, why don't you babe?
Talkin' 'bout love - get out my life, why don't you babe? Oooh
You really don't want me, you just keep me hangin' on
You really don't need me, you just keep me hangin' on
Get out my life, why don't you babe? Oooh
Get out my life, why don't you babe? Oooh
Get out my life, why don't you babe? Oooh
Get out my life, why don't you babe? Oooh
Get out my life, why don't you babe? Oooh
You really don't want me, you just keep me hangin' on
You really don't need me, you just keep me hangin' on
Why don't you get out of my life
And let me try to make a new start?
Let me get over you the way you've gotten over me
Get out my life, why don't you now? Oooh
You really don't want me, you just keep me hangin' on
You really don't need me, you just keep me hangin' on
But how can we still be friends
When seein' you only breaks my heart again?
There ain't nothin' I can do about it
Talkin' 'bout love - get out my life, why don't you babe? Oooh
You really don't want me, you just keep me hangin' on
You really don't need me, you just keep me hangin' on
Get out my life, why don't you babe? Oooh
Get out my life, why don't you babe? Oooh
Get out my life, why don't you babe? Oooh
Get out my life, why don't you babe? Oooh

my dad said he covered this song waaaay back in the day. drums are sick on this one. not my kind of poetry but ehhh who cares, they made it their own.
i love this version....better than any other
Awsome break-up song the best version of it hands down.
hmm i just found out that this was a cover. its cool i love how the recording isn't really hightech-ish its cool then
Awesome cover of the Supremes! I love this version more. It has more emotion and beat to it. I can really feel the hurt. The music video is so hilarious; everyone should check it out on youtube.
Beautiful.
