Set me free, why don't you babe?
Get out my life, why don't you babe?
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hanging on

Set me free, why don't you babe?
Get out my life, why don't you babe?
'Cause you don't really need me
But you keep me hanging on

Why do you keep a-comin' around
Playing with my heart
Why don't you get out of my life
And let me make a brand new start
Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me, yeah

Set me free, why don't you babe?
Get out my life, why don't you babe?
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hanging on

Now you don't really need me
You just keep me hanging on
You say although we broke
You still just wanna be friends
But how can we still be friends
When seeing you only breaks my heart again
And there ain't nothing I can do about it...

Get out, get out of my life
And let me sleep at night
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hanging on

You say you still care for me
But your heart and soul needs to be free
Now that you've got your freedom
You wanna still hold on to me

You don't want me for yourself
So let me find somebody else
Why don't you be a man about it and set me free
Now you don't care a thing about me

You're just using me
Get out, get out of my life
And let me sleep at night
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hanging on
'Cause you don't really need me
You just keep me hanging on
