|
There was a time |
|
I used to call you on my very own |
|
We were so happy, woman |
|
Talkin' for hours and hours on the telephone |
|
Then one day |
|
I set you up to walk right outta my life |
|
Leavin' me all by myself |
|
All alone to cry every night |
|
(Babe, babe, babe, come on home) |
|
Oh, I want you to come back home, yeah |
|
(Oh yeah) |
|
Sweet little girl |
|
(Gone to long) |
|
You've been away so long |
|
Now listen to me |
|
I said I made up my mind |
|
Woman, when you left me there, oh |
|
I was gonna find another sweet lover |
|
Who's gonna feel all of my, all of my, all of my cares |
|
So I met a sweet little girl |
|
Just about as nice as she could be, oh |
|
I fell in love with that woman |
|
But she turned around and did the same thing again to me, oh |
|
(Babe, babe, babe, come on home) |
|
Baby, baby please, come home, home, oh yeah |
|
(Oh yeah) |
|
I know |
|
(You been gone too long) |
|
You been away so long |
|
(Babe, babe, babe, come on home) |
|
I want you to please come home, oh |
|
(Oh yeah) |
|
(You been gone too long) |
|
So I made up my mind |
|
I'm gonna crawl right back to you, woman |
|
I'm gonna plead and plead and plead, yeah |
|
Till you're here by my side |
|
I can't even walk down the same old streets |
|
We used to walk down |
|
'Cause I keep thinkin' about all the good times |
|
Keep thinkin' about it, I wanna make you mine |
|
Oh, babe, babe, babe, please come home, yeah |
|
(Babe, babe, babe, come on home) |
|
(Oh yeah) |
|
(You been gone too long) |
|
I want you to, oh |
|
(Babe, babe, babe, come on home) |
|
I want you to come back runnin' home |
|
Give me more |
|
(Oh yeah) |
|
I want you to think about |
|
When we walked through the trees together |
|
(You've been gone too long) |
|
You know we had such a real good time |
|
Oh, here it goes |
