Baby, baby, sweet baby

 There's something that I've just got to say

 Baby, baby, sweet baby

 You left me hurtin' in a real cold way



 Speak your name and I feel a thrill

 You said I do, sure thing, and I said I will



 I told you to just be true

 And give me just a little time

 Wait on me, baby

 I want you to be all o' mine

 I've just been so blue

 Since you've been gone

 (why'd ya do it, why'd ya have to do it)



 Since you've been gone

 I've been missin' you

 Miss your good love

 Miss your kissin' too

 What a shame, why'd you do that

 Why'd you tip on me?

 Come home, bring your love back now

 To rescue me, Uh Huh



 Baby, baby, sweet baby

 (sweet, sweet baby)

 I didn't mean to run you away

 It was pride on my lips

 But not in my heart

 To say the things that made you stray



 And I mean

 Hear me now (hear me)

 I don't know what I'm gonna do (hear me)

 Gotta get you back somehow (hear me now)



 And all I know is if ya

 Take me back

 Consider me, please

 If you walk in that door

 I can get you off my knees

 And I've just been so blue

 Since you've been gone

 (why'd ya do it, why'd ya have to do it)

 Since you've been gone

 (why'd ya do it, why'd ya have to do it)
