Lyrics
Set me free
Why don't you babe?
Keep me hangin' on
Set my free
Why don't you babe?
Get of my life
Why don't you babe?
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
Set me free
Why don't you babe?
Get out my life
Why don't you babe? (ooh-woo-ooh)
'Cause you don't really need me
But, you've just keep me hangin' on
Why do you keep a-comin' around playin' with my heart?
Why don't you get out of my life
And let me make a brand-new start?
Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me, yeah-yeah-yeah
Set me free
Why don't you babe?
Get off my life
Why don't you babe? (ooh-woo-ooh)
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
No, you don't really need me
You just keep me hangin' on
You say although we broke up
"You still just wanna be friends"
But how can we still be friends
When seein' you only breaks my heart again?
Ooh-woah-woah-woah
Ooh-woah-woah-woah-woah
(And there ain't nothing I can do about it)
Ooh-woah-woah-woah
Ooh-woah-woah-woah-woah
Hey, yeah
Get out, get out of my life
And let me sleep at night
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me (hangin' on) hangin' on
You say you still care for me
But your heart, and soul needs to be free
And now that you've got your freedom
You wanna still hold on to me
You don't want me for yourself
So let me find somebody else
Why don't you be a man about it, set me free (ooh-woo-ooh)
No, you don't care a thing about me
You're just usin' me, hey, abusin' me
Get out, get out of my life
And let me sleep at night (ooh-woo-ooh)
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
Hangin' on
