Yo Yo - Joe South

All right

It’s all right

Aw, hit it

Whoa

Ready now?

Hey

Oh, ho, ho (Oh, ho, ho)

Just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)

Oh, ho, ho (Oh, ho, ho)

Just like a yo-yo (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, then I’m down

Then my heart goes around and around

I’ll bet you five dollars I’m the only fool

Who’d climb up a string for you, child

Need I say I can’t break away

You control every thing I do

I used to be such a swinger

Until you wrapped me around your little finger

Just like a yo-yo

Hey, just like a yo-yo

Listen, oh, ho, ho (Oh, ho, ho)

Just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)

Oh, ho, ho, now you say it (Oh, ho, ho)

Just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)

Get loose

Turnin', turnin'

Love keeps a-burnin'

Like a fire in my heart, now

We’re apart, now

We’re back together

You keep a-changin' like the weather

Whoop, now!

Up and down like a yo-yo

Just like a yo-yo

Oo!

Oh, ho, ho (Oh, ho, ho)

Hey, just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)

Oh, ho, ho (Oh, ho, ho)

Whoa, just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)

Now, where I go and what I do

Child, it all just depends upon you

You build me up just to let me down

But I dare not to make a sound

'Cause I’m so afraid that you will throw me away

Like a beat up, worn out toy

So I hold on tight with all of my might

Just to be your lovin' boy

Hey, no matter what you say or do

I got to bounce right back to you

Just like a yo-yo, hey (Just like a yo-yo)

Oh, ho, ho (Oh, ho, ho)

Whoa, just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)

Oh, ho, ho, all right (Oh, ho, ho)

Just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)

Turnin', turnin'

Love keeps a-burnin'

Like a fire in my heart, now

We’re apart, now

We’re back together

Lord, you keep a-changin' like the weather

Whoop, now!

Up and down like a yo-yo

Just like a yo-yo

Oh, ho, ho (Oh, ho, ho)

Whoa, just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)

Oh, ho, ho, now y’all say it (Oh, ho, ho)

Just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)

Oh, ho, ho, sounds so fine (Oh, ho, ho)

Just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)

Oh, ho, ho, hey (Oh, ho, ho)

Just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)

All right, first I’m up, then I’m down (Oh, ho, ho)

Then I fool around just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)

Hey, hey, hey (Oh, ho, ho)

Just like a yo-yo (Just like a yo-yo)
