I'm Gonna Lock My Heart (And Throw Away the Key)

(Jimmy Eaton - Terry Shand)



I'm gonna lock my heart

And throw away the key

I'm wise to all those tricks

You played on me.



I'm gonna turn my back on love

Gonna stop the moon above

She lower my windows up with tin

So the love bug can't get in.



I'm gonna park my romance

Right along the curve

Hang a sign upon my heart

Please don't disturb.



And if I'd never fall in love again

That's soon enough for me

I'm gonna lock my heart

And throw away the key.



--- Instrumental ---



I'm gonna lock my heart

And throw away the key

I'm wise to all those tricks

You played on me...
