(One day, two days, three, four, five) 

A-that's how long that she's been gone 

And that's how long I've cried 

Five days, five days 

Since you walked out the door 

Won't you please come home 

I couldn't stand five more 



Well the first day after she left me 

I laughed and told my friends 

That she'd be back before 

The sun is settin' low again 

Five days, five days 

Since you walked out the door 

Won't you please come home 

I couldn't stand five more .



Well, the second day after she left me 

I started to have my doubts, 

I wondered if she was comin' back 

or Really had checked out. 

Five days, five days 

Since you walked out the door, 

Won't you please come home 

I couldn't stand five more .

(One, two, three, four, five days more)



Well, the third day after she left me 

I started to watch the door, 

Before the day was over 

I began to walk the floor. 

Five days, five days 

Since you walked out the door 

Won't you please come home 

I couldn't stand five more .



Well the fourth day after she left me 

I really began to sweat, 

She should have been back days ago 

But she ain't got back yet. 

Five days, five days 

Since you walked out the door 

Won't you please come home 

I couldn't stand five more 

(One, two, three, four, five days more)
