One two three
Four five six
Gotta do a dance
And it goes like this

Yeah some little girl's gotta hold on me
She's only thirteen but oh so sweet
Got me down on my knees
Got a stranglehold on me

Put's her arms around me like a vice
It's oh so painful but nice
But I can only take it once or twice
Got a stranglehold on me

Got a stranglehold on me
Got a stranglehold on me
Got a stranglehold on me
Stranglehold

Put's her arms around me like a vice
It's oh so painful but nice
But I can only take it once or twice
Got a stranglehold on me

Sing with the song of Uk Subs, Stranglehold lyrics!


Got a stranglehold on me
Got a stranglehold on me
Got a stranglehold on me
Stranglehold

Stranglehold on me
Stranglehold on me
Got a stranglehold on me
Stranglehold.

Five six seven
Eight nine ten
You want more?
We'll do it again

Stranglehold on me
Stranglehold on me
Stranglehold on me
Stranglehold.

[repeat several times]

Artist Information

Profile:

The UK Subs were another group that emerged from the scene at The Roxy in London in 1977. Founder and Lead Vocalist Charlie Harper was playing in R&B and pub rock groups before being influenced by bands like The Damned to turn to punk. The band was based around Harper's growling Cockney vocals with Nicky Garratt on Guitar, Paul Slack on Bass and a variety of drummers. Although adopting punk stylings, the bands work was still heavily influenced by R&B, albeit played fast. Their sound was most similar to Sham 69 or The Angelic Upstarts, although without the skinhead following Whilst never having a big hit, several singles made the lower reaches of the Top 30 in the late 70s, including "Stranglehold", "Tomorrow's Girls", a cover of The Zombies classic "She's Not There" and "Warhead". The first two studio LPs "Another Kind of Blues" and "Brand New Age" also made the lower reaches of the album charts. The band split in 1983, but has since reformed and continues to gig intensively
