If You Don't Come Back
Well, a noise woke me up this morning
I looked through the Venetian blind
The car was gone and you were gone
And I almost lost my mind
If you don't come back (if you don't come back)
Well, if you don't come back today, baby (if you don't come back)
Well, you can call up the people at the crazy house
And take this crazy man away
I threw myself up against the wall now
I tore my clothes and I sobbed
I ran out on the street in my stocking feet
For yelling police, I've been robbed
If you don't come back (if you don't come back)
Well, if you don't come back today, baby (if you don't come back)
Yeah, you can call up the people at the crazy house
And take this crazy man away
Mrs. Brown's been talking about me
To the people way across the street
She said I cooked that boy now a bucket of stew
But the poor thing just won't eat
If you don't come back (if you don't come back)
Well, if you don't come back today, baby (if you don't come back)
Yeah, you can call up the people at the crazy house
And take this crazy man away
Oh, the doctor came up to see me
Checked me with a fine tooth comb
He said, "You ain't sick, but you're gonna die
If you don't get your baby back home"
If you don't come back (if you don't come back)
Oh, if you don't come back today, baby (if you don't come back)
Yeah, you can call up the people at the crazy house
And take this crazy man away
If you don't come back (if you don't come back)
Oh, if you don't come back today, baby (if you don't come back)
If you don't come back to me no more (if you don't come back)
I looked through the Venetian blind
The car was gone and you were gone
And I almost lost my mind
If you don't come back (if you don't come back)
Well, if you don't come back today, baby (if you don't come back)
Well, you can call up the people at the crazy house
And take this crazy man away
I threw myself up against the wall now
I tore my clothes and I sobbed
I ran out on the street in my stocking feet
For yelling police, I've been robbed
If you don't come back (if you don't come back)
Well, if you don't come back today, baby (if you don't come back)
Yeah, you can call up the people at the crazy house
And take this crazy man away
Mrs. Brown's been talking about me
To the people way across the street
She said I cooked that boy now a bucket of stew
But the poor thing just won't eat
If you don't come back (if you don't come back)
Well, if you don't come back today, baby (if you don't come back)
Yeah, you can call up the people at the crazy house
And take this crazy man away
Oh, the doctor came up to see me
Checked me with a fine tooth comb
He said, "You ain't sick, but you're gonna die
If you don't get your baby back home"
If you don't come back (if you don't come back)
Oh, if you don't come back today, baby (if you don't come back)
Yeah, you can call up the people at the crazy house
And take this crazy man away
If you don't come back (if you don't come back)
Oh, if you don't come back today, baby (if you don't come back)
If you don't come back to me no more (if you don't come back)
