Bridge:
Finding my way back to you girl,
Lonely and blue, mistreated too.
Sometimes I think of you girl,
Is it true that you think of me too?

I left my woman with a twenty dollar bill.
I left her waiting, hope she s waiting for me still.
If I don t be there by morning
You know that I, I never will.
