Too Strong to Be Strung Along (First Pressing) - The Marvelettes

Everybody’s talking about their heartache

And crying an ocean of tears

But I’m too strong to be strung along

By some silly boy’s foolish charm

It just boils my blood to see a girl so weak

Weak and humbled at me

Because if it was me I’d make that silly boys see

Ain’t nothing they can do to put the hurt on me

(I'm too strong to be, strung along

By some silly boy’s foolish charms)

Now listen!

Hey!

(If it was me I’d make those silly boys see

Ain’t nothing they can do to put the hurt on me)

It made me so mad when I saw Wanetta

Taking in that playboy’s jive

I told her once and I told her twice

He’d take her love and leave her cold as ice

A tip to the wise should be sufficient enough

Playing around with love, girl, is really rough

It just boils my blood to see a girl so weak

Weak and humbled at me

Because if it was me I’d make that silly boys see

Ain’t nothing they can do to put the hurt on me

(I'm too strong to be, strung along

By some silly boy’s foolish charms)

I’m too strong now baby

(If it was me I’d make those silly boys see

Ain’t nothing they can do to put the hurt on me)

One more time now!

(I'm too strong to be, strung along

By some silly boy’s foolish charms)

Hey, now listen!

(If it was me I’d make those silly boys see

Ain’t nothing they can do to put the hurt on me)

I’m too strong baby, too strong
