You Keep Tightening Up on Me Lyrics & Tabs by The Box Tops
You Keep Tightening Up on Me
guitar chords lyrics
I keep waiting
For you to do something I don't like
I keep waiting
But everything you do, you do all right
You give me love when I want you;
You leave me alone when I don't
Something says I ought to leave you,
But something tells me I won't
CHORUS:
'Cause you keep tightening up on me, and I can't break away
'Cause you keep tightening up on me, with a sweeter love every day.
It scares me just a little bit, knowing I'll never be free
Woman, I'm at your mercy, 'cause you keep
Tightening up, tightening up, tightening up on me
Yeah
Woman, I'm at your mercy, 'cause you keep
Tightening up, tightening up, tightening up on me
Yeah
O-o-o
yeah
La-la-la
Your kind of love
Makes it hard for a man to say no to you
One look at me
And I know I've got to go to you
Even when I'm looking away
In my mind I can see you
I ain't sure that I love you, baby,
But I know that I need you
(chorus)
Yeah
O-o-o
yeah
Uh-uh-uh-huh
o-o-o
You keep tightening up on me, and I can't break away
You keep tightening up on me, with a sweeter love every day
