Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Watching that clock tick tocking on by
Had to talk myself out of up and quitting outright
But I heard that we were working late
I called my baby on my next break
She was a hot mess she'd had a bad day
She took a deep breath next thing she had to say
Was honey I want you
[Verse 2]
Baby's blue
Yeah she needs me by her side
So blue
I can hear the tears in her eyes
Lord knows I need this job
There's bills to pay
But I'd walk away if I have to
Baby's blue
[Verse 3]
Finally off work crank up my pickup
Drive like a madman 'cause she needs my love
Like a songbird needs a tune
I tell you just what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna wrap her up tight
Kiss the tears out of her eyes
Man I swear if I hit another red light
I'm gonna drive on through
I'm gonna drive on through
[Verse 4]
'Cause baby's blue
Yeah she needs me by her side
So blue
I can hear the tears in her eyes
Lord knows I need that job
'Cause there's bills to pay
But I'd walk away if I have to
Baby's blue
[Verse 5]
Oh the kind of fire my baby's got
Oh it's past the point of red hot
It's blue
'Cause she needs me by her side
So blue
I can hear the tears in her eyes
Lord knows I need that job
'Cause there's bills to pay
But I'd walk away if I have to
Baby's blue
My baby's blue
