Johnny boy, he's always propping up the bar

He's sees life crystallized through his jar

He 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

A heart to hang onto

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

Danny, he wants to save for a new guitar

He's going to 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... to hang onto...
