Lyrics

Come on home And be welcome to stay Baby, tell me you're comin' home Livin' alone is so lonely I never should ever have run you away I knew the day we met You brought my love alive You got me so upset I forgot you was really jive Still when I took you in My heart was ruling me Finally I put you out 'Cause you only was foolin' me But if you're broke again And you need a friend Come on home I know you ain't no good I know your ways are bad I'd quit you if I could But without you I'm goin' mad I'm hopin' every day Maybe you'll settle down 'Cause I'm in love with you And I ain't 'bout to turn around So if you're broke again And you need a friend Come on home What are you doin'? You standin' around the corner and Meanwhile your home's goin' to ruin What are ya, stupid? There's many a cat just looking for such as that Woman didn't mean it she would never be saying it Plenty o' women wouldn't take you back if you were Bendin' down and really on bended knee to call my plea Tellin' you really where it's at Get together Get together, get it! Runnin', crawlin', creepin', stumblin', fallin' Plenty o' time for stopping an' thinking While you're sittin' round at home and getting fat and Generally playing it cool Hurry it up and head for home 'Cos women you find'll change their mind While you gotta take the time to figure it out And tell your baby home is where it's at Figure it out and you'll get it together I figured it out Soon as you said it I got it together And figured it out What am I gonna do? I've gotta make it 'Cause lonely nights are terrible, terrible, terrible Tired of lookin' Home and cookin' I go for that, that's where it's at Got it together and figured out already Got it together and figured I must eat steady Steady with a pot is really better than a hotdog Now I'm here with just a sandwich in a sack So what a relief knowin' she'll take me back Now we've got another chance to get together Nuts with pretendin' What's with pretendin'? I messed around and acted bad and lost my pet and Now my baby's givin' me another chance to get together What's there to talk and talk and talk about? What's there to squawk and squawk and squawk about? What?! You just got to come home Man doin' what he want to Spend all o' his time staying at home Sweet home Home You dig me, pretty baby? You heard right: come on home Mama's gonna treat you so you'll never roam 'Cause what's gotta be gotta be 'N you you're the only man for me I don't want you to be misled Mean what I said Come home, come home, come home I should thought I was puttin' you out I should thought I was happy you went away Puttin' you down was tearin' me up That's the reason I'm callin' you home to stay Everybody's gonna tell me I'm a dunce and man I really truly, truly, truly, truly, truly can dig it I really and truly, truly can dig it I really can dig it, I really can dig it I really can dig it, I really can dig it Maybe, I'm a dunce, I can believe it We don't love But once So you see, baby Let people call me dumb For makin' up with you But when you go I'm numb So what else am I gonna do? Maybe I'll take you back Maybe you'll do me right Tired o' lonely days And of many a lonely night So if you're broke again And you need a friend Come on home And be welcome to stay Baby, tell me you're comin' home Living alone is so lonely I never should ever have run you away Baby come home
