Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, I know that it's gettin' late
But I don't want to go home
I'm in no hurry, baby, time can wait
'Cause I don't want to go home
[Verse 2]
Listen to the man sing his song
No, I don't want to go home
I don't mind if it take all night long
'Cause I don't want to go home
[Verse 3]
Listen, baby, I know we had to try
To reach up and touch the sky, baby
Whatever happened to you and I
That I don't want to go home?
[Verse 4]
Lord, look at how the people stare
Said, I don't want to go home
In their mind, I know they've all been there
I don't want to go home
[Verse 5]
I know the words to this song are real
But, oh, I don't want to go home
I know he's talkin' about the way I feel
Yeah, and I don't want to go home
[Verse 6]
Listen, baby, I know we had to try
To reach up and touch the sky, baby
Whatever happened to you and I
That I don't want to go home?
[Verse 7]
I wanna hear
People laughin' and havin' a good time
I want to know
Why she told me she had to go
Why did she leave me lonely?
[Verse 8]
I know that it's time to go
But I don't want to go home
You can play your blues, play 'em soft and low
'Cause I don't want to go home
[Verse 9]
Listen, baby, I know we had to try
To reach up and touch the sky, baby
Whatever happened to you and I
That I don't want to go? Oh, baby
I don't wanna go, believe me, darlin'
I don't want to go home
[Verse 10]
Don't wanna be all alone, no
I don't want to go home, baby
Ain't nobody waitin' at home
Baby, won't you please come home?
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, won't you please come home?
I need you, my side at home, yeah
'Cause ain't nobody waitin', ain't nobody waitin'
Ain't nobody waitin' at home
Baby, won't you please come home?
