Set me free why doncha babe
Get out of my life why doncha
babe
Cuz you don't really love me, you just keep me hangin' on
You don't
really need me but ya keep me hangin' on

Why do ya keep a'comin' around
playin' with my heart
Why doncha get out of my life and let me make a new
start
Let me get over you the way you've gotten over me-hey

Set me
free why doncha babe
Let me be why doncha babe
Cuz you don't really love
me, you just keep me hangin' on
Now you don't really want me, you just keep
me hangin' on

You say although we broke up you still wanna be just
friends
But how can we still be friends when seein' you only breaks my heart
again
SPOKEN: 

Whoa-oh-oh

Set me free why doncha babe (Whoa-oh-oh)
Get
out of my life why doncha babe (Whoa-oh-oh)
Set me free why doncha
babe
Get out of my life why doncha babe

You claim you still care for
me but your heart and soul need to be free
And now that you've got your
freedom you want to still hold on to me
You don't want me or yourself so let
me find somebody else, hey hey

Why doncha be a man about it and set me
free
Now you don't care a thing about me, you're just usin' me-go on
Get
out, get out of my life and let me sleep at night

FADE: You don't really
love me, you just
