Jackie Greene - When You Return lyrics

There's too much work today And I don't want to Do anything today No I don't want to But the barn out there needs maintenance And I ain't got the patience I think I'd rather sit and watch it burn Wait right here baby till you return All our friends come by They annoy me They try to get me high But they destroy me They think they do me service But they just make me nervous What goes on is nobody's concern Ill tell you everything when you return I can't stand it here If you're not standing here I can't keep it together I can't be brave forever You know not how a man like me can yearn I'll keep you by my side when you return I can't stand it here If you're not standing here I wish that I was tougher But it serves me right to suffer You know not how a man like me can yearn I'll keep you by my side when you return There's too much work today And I don't care to Do all the things they say Cause its not fair to Turn this house into a home It can't be done alone Give me one more chance that I may earn Earn back you baby when you return
