Lyrics

If you need me

I want ya to call me

I said if you need me

All ya gotta do is call me

Don't wait too long

If things go wrong

I'll be home

Home

If you want me

Send for me

I said if you want me

Want me

All ya gotta do is send for me

Don't wait too long

Just a pick up your phone

And I'll hurry home

Where I belong

People've always said darlin' (Bam-bam)

That I didn't mean you no good (Bam-bam)

And you would need me someday (Bam-bam)

Way deep down in my heart (Bam-bam)

I know I've done the best I could

That's why I know that one of these days, it won't be long

You'll come walkin' through that same door

(I'll hurry home)

And I can imagine in my mind that these are the words that you'll be sayin'

(Home)

"I still love you

Always thinkin' of you

And I still love, love you

Always thinkin' of you"

Don't wait too long

Just a pick up your phone

And I'll hurry home

(I'll hurry home)

Right there, where I belong
