I'm sorry baby, but I can't afford to stay.

Your good, kind treatment will worry me someday.

I love you baby, but I'm gonna have to say goodbye.

Woman, I got to move, I really got to fly.

[Chorus]

Same thing every morning,

Tell me what's it all about.

I get those same old blues every night.

I miss you already, baby, more than words can say.

Seems like I've been gone twenty-four hours, more like a million days.

I love you baby, you know I woudn't tell you no lies.

If you don't believe I love you, look at the tears standing in my eyes.

[Chorus]

Here I am back home, baby, I'm back home to stay.

I love you babe, never more will I go away.

I won't hurt you no more, baby, ain't gonna tell you no more lies.

No more running 'round, no more phony alibis.

[Chorus 3x]
