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
