Woah, oh, ho (whoa, oh, ho)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)
Woah, oh, ho (whoa, oh, 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 and then I'm down
Then my heart goes around and round

I bet you five dollars
I'm the only fool who will climb up a string for you

And need I say I can't break away
You control every thing I do

I used to be a swinger
Till you wrapped me round your finger

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

Woah, oh, ho (whoa, oh, ho)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)
Woah, oh, ho (whoa, oh, ho)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)

Turning, turning
Love keeps burning like a fire in my heart now
We're apart now
A-we're back together
You keep changing like the weather, whoops, now
Up and down like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)

Woah, oh, ho (whoa, oh, ho)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)
Woah, oh, ho (whoa, oh, ho)
Just like a yo-yo (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 loving boy

No matter what they say or do
I gotta bounce right back to you now
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)

Woah, oh, ho (whoa, oh, ho)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)
Woah, oh, ho (whoa, oh, ho)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)

Turning, turning
Love keeps a-burning like a fire in my heart now
We're apart now
A-we're back together
You keep changing like the weather, whoops, now
Up and down like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)

Woah, oh, ho (whoa, oh, ho)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)
Woah, oh, ho (whoa, oh, ho)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)
Woah, oh, ho, ho (whoa, oh, ho)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo-yo)
Woah, oh, ho (whoa, oh, ho)
Just like a yo-yo (just like a yo)
