Heart to Hang Onto Songtext
von Pete Townshend & Ronnie Lane

Johnny Boy, he′s always proppin' up the bar
He sees life crystallized through his jar
Says he only lives for beer
But deep in his heart is a cry of fear

Give me a heart to hang onto
Give me a soul that′s tailored new
Give me a heart to hang onto
A heart to hang onto

Oh, Sally seems to get bigger everyday
She evens out in a contented way
A finger on the pulse of every guy
But deep in the night you can hear her cry

Give me a heart to hang onto
Give me a life that's tailored new
Give me a heart to hang onto
Oh, please do, a heart to hang onto

Give me a heart to hang onto
Give me a soul that's tailored new
Give me a heart to hang onto, oh yeah


Give me a heart to hang onto

Danny, he wants to save for a new guitar
He′s gonna learn to play, but he won′t get far
He thinks it's an easy goin′ high
But his whole life is just another try

Give me a heart to hang onto
Give me a suit that's tailored true
Give me a heart to hang onto
A heart to hang onto


I need a heart, I need a
I need a, I need a heart to hang onto
To hang onto
To hang onto
To hang on
I need a heart
To hang onto
To hang onto
To hang onto, yeah
I need a heart (to hang onto)
(To hang onto)
(To hang onto)
(To hang onto)
(To hang onto)
(To hang onto)
I need a heart, I need a heart (to hang onto)
I need a heart, I need a heart (to hang onto)
I need a heart, I need a heart (to hang onto)
I need a heart
