Lyrics Percy Sledge

Percy Sledge

I'm Hanging Up My Heart For You

I'm gonna stop wasting time, honey

Being a run around

Chasing after every little girl

That lives in our town

I'm just take it easy, baby

I tell you what I'm

Gonna do right now

I'm hanging up my heart for you

I'm gonna shake the reputation

Of being a ladies man

Gonna throw away my

Little black book right now

In the nearest trash can

I'm gonna push aside

The things I use to do

Because I'm hanging up my heart for you

I wanna thank you, yes

I wanna thank you

For making me see the light

And oh, I'm gonna thank you

Yes, I'm gonna thank you, darling

For the rest of my life

When I first met you, darling

You made my life complete

Everybody knows I love you

They can tell the way I speak

I'm just gonna take it easy, baby

And that ain't all I'm gonna do

Because I'm hanging up my

Heart for you, oh yes, yes

I'm hanging up my heart

my heart for you
