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