Keep You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Same song, again and again
You wrong me twice and I keep coming back

Same song, again and again
You wrong me twice and I keep coming back
Tell me what the matter is, little man
I've got a pretty face and I wear a nice dress
Tell me what the matter is, little man
I've got a pretty face and I wear a nice dress


[Chorus]
Why can't I keep you?
Keep you
Why can't I keep you?
Keep you

[Verse 2]
Every minute that I spend on you
I give you honey and I give you truth
All the other women they get treat so rude
Cry, cry, cause you make them blue

Running over town like you got no nerve
Sleeping in the shanty of a brand new girl
Call me after Nancy, but before Rachel
Why can't I keep you for myself?
[Chorus]
Why can't I keep you?
Keep you
Why can't I keep you?
Keep you

[Refrain]
Same song, again and again
You wrong me twice and I keep coming back
Same song, again and again
You wrong me twice and I keep coming back
Same song, again and again
You wrong me twice and I keep coming back
Why can't I keep you?
Same song, again and again
You wrong me twice and I keep coming back

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
