Hooks
Kelly Family · Other Songs - Kelly Family
They're both young and very pretty
They're in love but he betrays her
He says he's sorry and so she wants
to belive him that is why
He's got her on his hooks
Bridge:
What you do to me I can do to you
Babe set me free then I'll let you be
Come on, come on now don't you
fool around
cause your hurting me won't you
let me be
Chorus:
You got me on your hooks
You're a bastard
You got me on your hooks
You're a bastard you know it's true
You got me on your hooks
Then one day he decides to marry her
She doesn't want to
Because she doesn't believe him
I saw you kissing that girl last week
But I still think you love me
That's why you got me
Bridge
Chorus
I know it's crazy but I know it
won't be long
I know it's crazy but I know
I will survive lalala lalala
Bridge
You got me on your hooks!
