Lyrics

Late again When I get home You be waiting Still you know There ain't no use In you complaining I know that I Can show some respect 'Specially when I'm wrong But when I get back I know you say You've been away too long (Oooh) I wonder why I stay When everybody's gone Yeah There's always something there That keeps me hanging on (ooon) I wonder why I stay When everybody's gone (away) There's always something there That keeps me hanging on (ooon) I know that I Can show some respect 'Specially when I am wrong Late again When I get home You be waiting
