Confessin' the Blues
Baby, here I stand before you with my heart in my hand
I want you greet it mama hopin' that you'll understand
Well, baby, baby, please, don't dog me around
I'd rather love you, baby, than anyone else I know in town
Because you're so nice and loving
And you have such pleasant ways
If you take me to your home, I'll be there the rest of my days
Yes, baby, babe, you know I wouldn't lie
If I don't love you, baby
Well, I swear I hope to die
Oh baby, don't you want a man like me?
Well, baby, don't you want a man like me?
You just think only about our future
And forget about your used-to-be
Well, my days are long and dreary
And the sun refuse to shine
I would never be blue and lonely
If I knew that you were mine
Yes, baby, will you make everything alright?
Can I have you today, baby
Or will it be tomorrow night?
Well, this is my confession mama
And I'm thrilled by all your charms
It seems like I'm in heaven when I hold you in my arms
Yes, baby, you can have me for yourself
Well, I swear I love you, baby
And I don't want nobody else
I want you greet it mama hopin' that you'll understand
Well, baby, baby, please, don't dog me around
I'd rather love you, baby, than anyone else I know in town
Because you're so nice and loving
And you have such pleasant ways
If you take me to your home, I'll be there the rest of my days
Yes, baby, babe, you know I wouldn't lie
If I don't love you, baby
Well, I swear I hope to die
Oh baby, don't you want a man like me?
Well, baby, don't you want a man like me?
You just think only about our future
And forget about your used-to-be
Well, my days are long and dreary
And the sun refuse to shine
I would never be blue and lonely
If I knew that you were mine
Yes, baby, will you make everything alright?
Can I have you today, baby
Or will it be tomorrow night?
Well, this is my confession mama
And I'm thrilled by all your charms
It seems like I'm in heaven when I hold you in my arms
Yes, baby, you can have me for yourself
Well, I swear I love you, baby
And I don't want nobody else
