Reba McEntire - You Keep Me Hangin' On Lyrics






Set me free why don't you baby
Get out of my life why don't you baby
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
You don't really need me
But you keep me hangin' on

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

Set me free why don't you baby
Get out of my life why don't you baby
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
You don't really need me
But you keep me hangin' on

You say although we broke up
You still wanna be just friends
But how can we be friends
When seeing you only breaks my heart again

You claim you still care for me
But your heart and soul need to be free
Now that you got your freedom baby
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
You don't care a thing about me
You're just using me
So get out get out get out of my life
And let me sleep at night
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on

Keep me hangin' on

Keep me hangin' on

  42. B.... S....

    @666TypeONegative THEN DON'T WATCH IT! GOD! I ALWAYS HAVE 2 TELL EVRY1 THIS!

  43. L.... ....

    Those of you who've seen this already may not have realized this is actually a remix. True - and I have the physical CD single. This is an edit of the Classic Paradise Mix by UK outfit Love To Infinity. And this was indeed an honest-to-goodness hit, going up to #2 on Billboard's Dance/Club Play Chart back in 1996.

  44. B.... S....

    GOO REBA!! LET'S GO REBA LET'S GO!! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO REBA!!

  45. B.... S....

    OOH!! SEXY!!!!!!

  46. C.... C....

    It's weird seeing the men on Reba I am growing up watching her in her older years and she doesn't have dancers I am use to seeing like Cher having dancers hanging on her but she isn't married so its not weird and Reba has that my like personality to her friends and it's just weird i guess but it makes me giggle. but i love this video thanks for posting:)

  47. g.... ....

    the vocals are a problem in this one... Kim Wilde did better.

  48. D.... O....

    it's a good cover, a powerful voice at all but.. what is that freakin 'dance all over de stage' thing? DAMN this is so annoying..

  49. S.... ....

    H Reeba με χειλόφωνο και μαλλί κάγκελο!!! Δεν υπαρχει!!!

  50. B.... ....

    Good cover. Surprising for Reeeba.

  51. B.... ....

    I'm not dissing Reba at all when I say this but I like the glee version better... She does a good job with it though

  52. M.... E....

    Her voice just isn't right to do this song justice. To me, it just doesn't fit, nor does the music itself. This is just odd.

  53. n.... ....

    i had no idea reba could do this. my first time seeing it. fantastic job.

  54. Y.... c....

    Reba did alright on this. Definitely told radio she had more talent than just singing "Fancy" over and over and over and .... over... again... If you have never seen her in person, Imagine bringing a clipped 737 on stage. That's the intro. The show goes on from there, except for the occaisional 'must do' for her hardcore twang fans that refuse to let her excercise her pipes. One other point... like most live shows, this does no justice to the studio album. None. That kicks ass. go reba.

  55. C.... ....

    @labandme That's some creative criticism. You must be proud of yourself.
    Just because somebody covered the song that you like but didn't exceed your expectations, doesn't mean you're any smarter than them.

    Good job on making yourself sound like an idiot.

  56. N.... ....

    This is just one of my most favorite songs of all time. Just about everybody can relate to it and the lyrics and melody absolutely force you to sing along. It's also just about impossible to ruin. Whether it's The Supremes original version, Kim Wilde's '80's hit, DJ Aligator's version, or this kick-ass remake by Miss Reba, among many others THIS SONG JUST FREAKIN' ROCKS!!! We all have an "ex" that we want to just scream this to.

  57. s.... ....

    this was her trying to become a pop diva phase ..ofcourse it failed.
    she is a country queen , her marketing department failed to see that with this very watered down version

    s.... ....

    ... and don't forget the amount of gay fans this would have dragged into her career had this been massively successful ... gay fans and country music coming closer to one another in the 90s? Nahhh ... God must have said somewhere in the Bible that was to be forbidden, or at least someone in the Country music industry said so in the name of God.

  58. l.... ....

    Why? I don't like the song!! I am sorry you disagree!!

  59. l.... ....

    Wow, this awful!!!!

  60. d.... ....

    I usually hate this kind of music, but Reba sings it with such intensity that I can't help but like it.

  61. a.... ....

    why would anyone want to see Wilson's version, when you can go go watch the SUPREME DIVA Miss DIANA ROSS sing it ???

  62. m.... ....

    If you send me your email I might be able to sort it for you... send to my inbox here

  63. E.... S....

    Wow Reba can really get down ......Go Reba!

  64. E.... S....

    Reba is almost 50

  65. Y.... ....

    Hey doesn't this lady have a show that comes on TV?

  66. c.... ....

    i hate to be a hater... but this is truly awful. reba is a slut...


    however i like the supremes version of this song

  67. f.... ....

    i remember this special, it was great

  68. C.... ....

    no, nobody knows

    just kidding, it's on her "Starting Over" CD

  69. d.... ....

    She had a separate bus for the hair in those days.

  70. S.... D....

    chek my video in reponse ( the right one is KAMA KAMA AUG 1998 LAST PART )

  71. C.... ....

    I like that dress too.
    It's like a mix of formal suit and schoolgirl uniform.

  72. k.... ....

    wooow this is awesome!!!!! Gotta love Reba more , goood job on the mix!!! thanks

  73. A.... R....

    this is so freakin' awsm....I LOVE REBA!!!!!!!!

  74. C.... ....

    i agree

  75. S.... K....

    Can Someone Please Send This Song To Me Please?

  76. r.... ....

    then why in the hell did u watch this video... your not too smart!

  77. K.... L....

    I love this song! :)

  78. B.... ....

    It's not a Kim song. It's The Supremes' one (w/o Diana Ross). It's on YT so check "Related videos"

  79. C.... ....

    iTunes.

  80. M.... T....

    Wow, her version may not top the Supremes' recording of this song, but it comes pretty damned close!

  81. A.... O....

    She really puts on a great show! I ♥ this video! And this song! And Reba!

  82. C.... ....

    anytime

  83. C.... ....

    Description updated for you Kayla.

  84. C.... ....

    Yes, it is from Starting Over.

  85. C.... ....

    Wonderful song huh? :) One of my faves.

  86. C.... ....

    Heck, the whole outfit is awesome, and don't forget to mention the hair.

  87. L.... ....

    Really interesting to see her sort of rock out like that - i'm a new Reba fan so I just love seeing stuff from her past...thanks for uploading...I too love the necklace, but don't forget the boots, they're great too

  88. C.... ....

    np. i agree, what a wonderful necklace.

  89. C.... ....

    It was back in 1995, in her celebrating 20 years special.
