Darling, don't stay too long
|
Pretty baby
|
I know you're working hard for me
|
|
Darling, don't stay away too long
|
Pretty baby
|
Save the overtime for me
|
|
I walk around
|
Tryin' to find something to do
|
Baby, until your return
|
Turn on T.V.
|
Or play some solitaire
|
It does the job for a while
|
(For a while)
|
|
But nothing takes the place of you
|
(Nothing takes the place of you)
|
Just ain't no substitute
|
(Ain't no substitute)
|
'Cause you're all that I want in me
|
Only you can set me free
|
|
Darling, don't stay too long
|
Pretty baby
|
I know you're working hard for me
|
|
Darling, don't stay away too long
|
Pretty baby
|
Save the overtime for me
|
|
My love starts to come down hard on me
|
And I just can't find no relief, no
|
Only until I see your face again
|
I'm gonna be in such misery
|
|
Runnin' to the door
|
Peepin' out the window
|
Hopin' to see only you
|
|
Listen for the phone
|
(Checkin' out the tick tock)
|
Countin' if it's a certain time
|
Hear me now
|
5-4-3-2-1
|
|
Darling, don't stay too long
|
Pretty baby
|
I know you're working hard for me
|
|
Darling, baby, don't stay away too long
|
Pretty baby
|
Save the overtime for me
|
For me
|
|
Baby, baby
|
Save the overtime
|
Save the overtime
|
|
I know you have your eight hours to do
|
But it just don't feel good without ya
|
|
Oh, how I'm missing you
|
Oh, feelin' blue
|
|
I know it's crazy
|
But I, I walk around
|
Tryin' to find something else to do
|
Pretty baby, until your return
|
|
Turnin' on the T.V.
|
Or play some solitaire
|
Does the job for a while
|
(For a while)
|
|
Find yourself runnin' to the door
|
Peepin' out the window
|
Hopin' to see only you
|
|
Listen for the phone
|
Checkin' out the clock
|
(Checkin' out the tick tock)
|
Countin' if it's a certain time
|
Hear me now
|
5-4-3-2-1
|
|
Darling, don't stay too long
|
Pretty baby
|
I know you're working hard for me
|
|
Darling, don't stay away too long
|
Pretty baby
|
Save the overtime for me
|
|
Darling, don't stay too long
|
Pretty baby
|
I know you're working hard for me
|
|
Darling, don't stay away too long
