The Box Tops

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…
O-o-o… yeah…
La-la-la…
Your kind of love…
Makes it hard for a man to say no to you
