When the sunrise in the east, lover - It set deeply in the west
Oh, the sunrise in the east - I set deeply in the west
I've been lookin' for my lover and I haven't found her yetI'm gonna call up China - and see if my woman's over there
Well, I'm gonna call up China - and see if my woman's over there
You know I've searched the whole world over, Lord
I can't find my lover nowhere - hey yeahShe won't write me a letter - she won't even call me on the telephone
No, she won't write me a letter - she won't even call me on the telephone
You know I haven't had no real good lovin since the girl of mine been goneSomeday baby, you're gonna need me, like I want you
Hey, baby, you're gonna need me, like I want you
Oh, but when you call me on the phone, angel
I'll say - I have nothing for you to do
