My baby left town today
Caught a train before the light of day
She left me a note and kissed me goodbye
I feel distraught and lonely, my oh my
I hate when she's away
I'm left with no need to play
I only desire to run and hide
I'm lost without her by my side
Well I think I've been waiting my whole life
For someone to miss me like you do
So come home I'm here waiting for your kiss
My baby left town just yesterday
Held me tight saying she'd return to me
Watching her walk out of my sight
Set my mood so gloomy, I'm a fright
I hate when she's away
I just work till all the daylight fades
This ain't no fun and my heart aches
I’m on my second whiskey and she's to blame
Well I think I've been waiting my whole life
For someone to miss me like you do
So come home I'm here waiting for your kiss
Well I think I've been waiting my whole life
For someone to miss me like you do
So come home I'm here waiting for your kiss
My baby comes home today
She's got me waiting so eagerly
I'm more giddy than a child on Christmas day
Lord please help me show restraint
I hate when she's away
I'm left with no need to play
I only desire to run and hide
I'm lost without her by my side
Well I think I've been waiting my whole life
For someone to miss me like you do
So come home I'm here waiting for your kiss
