Ho, ho ho, just like a yo-yo.
|
Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.
|
Well it's hard for me to see
|
how you got such a hold on me.
|
|
First I'm up, and then I'm down.
|
Then my heart goes around and around.
|
Well, I'll bet you five dollars I'm the only fool
|
who'll climb up a string for you.
|
|
And need I say I can't break away,
|
you control every little thing I do.
|
I used to be a swinger,
|
until you wrapped me 'round your finger....
|
|
Just like a yo-yo,
|
just like a yo-yo.
|
Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.
|
Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.
|
Turnin', turnin' love keeps a-burnin'
|
like a fire in my heart
|
when we're apart, but when we're back together,
|
you keep changin' like the weather.
|
Whoops! Now up and down like a yo-yo.
|
Just like a yo-yo.
|
|
Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.
|
Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.
|
Where I go, and what I do,
|
well it all just depends on you.
|
You build me up just to let me down.
|
But I dare not to make a sound.
|
|
'Cause I'm so afraid you will cast me away
|
like a beat up, worn out toy.
|
So I hold on tight with all my might,
|
just to be your lovin' boy.
|
No matter what you say or do,
|
I'm gonna bounce right back to you now
|
just like a yo-yo.
|
Just like a yo-yo.
|
|
Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.
|
Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.
