There was a time, I used to call you on my very own
  We were so happy woman, Talkin' for hours and hours on the telephone
    Then one day, I set you up to walk right outta my life
  Leavin' me all by myself, All alone, to cry every night
    (Babe...) oooh, I want you to come back home yeah (come on home)
  (oooh yeah) Sweet little girl (ooh yeah, been gone so long)
  been away so long
    Now listen to me: I said I made up my mind
  Woman when you left me there, oh
  I was gonna find another sweet lover
  Who's gonna feel all of my... cares
    So I met a sweet little girl, Just about as nice as she could be, oh
  I fell in love with that woman, But she turned around,
  and did the same thing again to me...
    (Babe...) Baby, please come home (come on home) hoome yeah...
  I know, (ya been gone too long) been away so long
  (Babe...) I want you to please come home, oh (come on hooome...)
    So I made up my mind, I gonna crawl right back to you woman
  I'm gonna plead and plead and plead, yeah, 'Till you're here by my side
  I can't even walk down the same old streets we used to walk down
  'Cause I keep thinkin about all the good times
  Keep thinkin' about it, I wanna make you mine
    Babe, babe, babe, please (come on home, yeah) (come on home)
  (You've been gone too long)
