Why, why, baby? Why did you leave? Look how long we've been carrying on We've been uniting, undoing our wrongs Trying so hard to be good all along Now you hurt, I says you hurt my pride Why, why, baby? Why, why, darling? Why did you go? For the love of the Lord I beg you to return Please, please, baby, please Don't, don't let my heart burn, burn Why, why, darling? Why did you go? For the love of the Lord I beg you to return Please, please, baby, please Don't, don't let my heart burn, burn Why, why baby? Why did you leave me standing all alone Like a little child, lonely, baby Lonely am I I'm waiting for you to come home
