I'm Gonna Lock My Heart (And Throw Away the Key)

I'm Gonna Lock My Heart(And Throw Away The Key) - Carmen McRae

I'm gonna lock my heart

And throw away the key

I'm wise to all those tricks you played on me

I'm gonna turn my back on love

Gonna snog the moon above

Seal all my windows up with tin

So the love bug can't get in

I'm gonna park my romance right alone the curb

Hang a sign upon my heart

"Please don't disturb"

And if I never fall in love again

That's soon enough for me

I'm gonna lock my heart

And throw away the key

I said I'm gonna lock my heart

And throw away the key

I'm wise to all those tricks

You played on me

I'm gonna turn my back on love

Gonna snob the moon above

Seal all my windows up with tin

So the love bug can't get in

I'm gonna park my

Romance right alone the curb

Hang a sign upon my heart

Don't you dead disturb

And if I never never

Ever fall in love again

That's soon enough for me

I'm gonna lock my heart

I'm gonna lock my heart

I'm gonna lock my heart

And throw away key
