I've heard people say that love is maeant for two 
But this old heart of mine knows that this ain't true 
Three's a crowd they say but somehow something's wrong 
I got one I hang around and one I love at home. 

(Hanging on to one, and hangin' 'round the other.) 
The one I hang around is more than just a lover 
The one I love at home is a good wife and a mother 
Hangin' on to one and hangin' 'round the other. 

Now heartaches on the way the ending soon will come 
But I can't stand the thought of losing either one 
The truth I hide inside is more than I can stand 
Me and her in misery a-walkin' hand in hand. 

(Hanging on to one, and hangin' 'round the other.) 
The one I hang around is more than just a lover 
The one I love at home is a good wife and a mother 
Hangin' on to one and hangin' 'round the other. 

Hangin' on to one and hangin' 'round the other...
