The road that I travel ain't got yellow bricks
And she left me lonely for so long
Bring my baby home
And now I'm out here on my own
Now I'm out here all alone
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home?
So now we gettin' down to the nitty of the gritty
They say, one in the hand is worth two in the bush
His wife came home and she bursted in
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home?
And I've been fast and I've been slow
I tried to spread it around but it sure went fast
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home?
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home?
World series of love, it's two on one
I say her name been changed to avoid lawsuits
Yeah, the girl was a freak, I used to call her Monique
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home?
Now I'm lookin' for my heart like I'm made from tin
When I did my baby wrong
Seven years sure, gone flown by
Used to mess with this girl way back in the day
She brought her friend around and damn she was pretty
I held the whole world right in my palm
And every time I think about it I just lose my grip
But when shove came to push, yo, I had my own theories
And she flipped the script, she's puttin' lip to lip
And I've been square and I've been round
Betty was twisted, she said her number was listed
'Cause I've been up and I've been down
And I've been kind and I've been crass
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home?
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home?
She's from the PJ's and she went both ways
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home?
They grabbed my love too fisted, hugged it and kissed it
And I've been high and I've been low
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home?
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home?
And I've been cool and I've been calm
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home?
Till I got caught with smokin' gun
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home?
My old woman jinxed that all men are pricks
It go one more treble, two for the bass
And before I even speak about knockin' the boots
I got no more tears any left to cry
Oh, when I did my sugar bad, I lost the best thing I ever had
