I knew that when I saw |
|
That my life would soon move over from the fast lane |
|
Gone would be the days |
|
Of all by drinkin' and my carrying on |
|
But when I settled down, the party king uncrowned |
|
This stubborn memory hadn't faded |
|
Too many dumb mistakes and all the grief it makes |
|
Left nothing else to be debated |
|
And if you say that you understand then you're lyin' |
|
But if you figure that I'm alright now I can't deny it |
|
Baby's coming back |
|
Baby's coming back |
|
So I'm on my best behavior |
|
I can't take it anymore |
|
I just woke up on the floor today, yeah yeah |
|
I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way |
|
If I had a dollar for every single time I fought her |
|
I'd buy a handgun |
|
But that couldn't shoot away |
|
The bull's eye that she made on my heart |
|
And if I sound like a beaten man well I guess so |
|
But on her way is the sweetest prize and I can't let go |
|
Baby's coming back |
|
Baby's coming back |
|
So I'm on my best behavior |
|
I can't take it anymore |
|
I just woke up on the floor today, yeah yeah |
|
I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way |
|
What I told her on the telephone was that I'd been so bad |
|
I wouldn't blame her if she mowed down these wild oats I'd sown |
|
But when she said she'd give me one more chance |
|
I said knock three times when you arrive |
|
Baby's coming back |
|
Baby's coming back |
|
So I'm on my best behavior |
|
I can't take it anymore |
|
I just woke up on the floor today, yeah yeah |
|
Baby's coming back, my darling |
|
Baby's coming back, the feeling |
|
I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way |
