Ho, ho ho, just like a yo-yo.

Ho, ho, ho, 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, and then I'm down.

Then my heart goes around and around.

Well, I'll bet you five dollars I'm the only fool

who'll climb up a string for you.

And need I say I can't break away,

you control every little thing I do.

I used to be a swinger,

until you wrapped me 'round your finger....

Just like a yo-yo,

just like a yo-yo.

Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.

Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.

Turnin', turnin' love keeps a-burnin'

like a fire in my heart

when we're apart, but when we're back together,

you keep changin' like the weather.

Whoops! Now up and down like a yo-yo.

Just like a yo-yo.

Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.

Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.

Where I go, and what I do,

well it all just depends on you.

You build me up just to let me down.

But I dare not to make a sound.

'Cause I'm so afraid you will cast me away

like a beat up, worn out toy.

So I hold on tight with all my might,

just to be your lovin' boy.

No matter what you say or do,

I'm gonna bounce right back to you now

just like a yo-yo.

Just like a yo-yo.

Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.

Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo-yo.
