"You Really Got a Hold on Me" Lyrics

by Smokey Robinson

As Released by the Miracles (1962)

I don't like you
But I love you
Seems that I'm always
thinking of you
Though you treat me badly
I love you madly
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me, baby

I don't want you,
but I need you
Don't want to kiss you
but I need to
Though you do me wrong now
my love is strong now
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me, baby

I love you and all I want you to do
is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me

Tighter, tighter

I want to leave you
don't want to stay here
Don't want to spend
another day here
Though I want to split now
I can't quit now
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me, baby

I love you and all I want you to do
is just hold me, please, hold me, squeeze, hold me, hold me

You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me
I said you really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me
You know you really got a hold on me
You know you really got a hold on me



As Released by the Beatles (1963)

I don't like you
But I love you
Seems that I'm always
Thinking of you
Oh, ho, ho, you treat me badly
I love you madly

You've really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)

Baby
I don't want you
But I need you
Don't wanna kiss you
But I need to
Oh, ho, ho, you do me wrong now
My love is strong now

You've really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)

Baby
I love you and all I want you to do
Is just
Hold me
Hold me
Hold me
Hold me

Tighter
Tighter

I wanna leave you
Don't wanna stay here
Don't wanna spend another day here
Oh ho ho, I wanna split now
I just can't quit now
You've really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)

Baby
I love you and all I want you to do
Is just
Hold me (please)
Hold me (squeeze)
Hold me
Hold me

You really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)
