Hey, did you happen to see my sweet baby?
|
|
He was walkin on down the road
|
|
Tell him for me that if you see him tonight
|
|
Everything is alright
|
|
'Cause I know how he gets when he's low
|
|
Oh, he's a beautiful man
|
|
Kinda hard to understand but
|
|
He's the only good man that I know
|
|
Won't you tell him for me
|
|
I'm keepin a light shinin in the window
|
|
Just in case he decides to come home
|
|
Shining in the window just in case he decides to come home
|
|
(He's a beautiful man, kinda hard to understand)
|
|
But he's the only good man that I know
|
|
Won't you tell him for me? (Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him)
|
|
I'm keeping a light (Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him) shining in the window
|
|
Just in case he decides to come home (ooh, ah)
|
|
Shining in the window
|
|
Just in case he decides to come home
|
|
Oh, we had quite a spat and that was all that but
|
|
We both said things that we didn't mean
|
|
Won't you tell him for me (Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him)
|
|
I'm keeping a light (Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him) shining in the window
|
|
Just in case he decides to come home (ooh, ah)
|
|
Shining in the window
|
|
In case he decides to come home
|
|
I'm keepin (ooh, ah) a light, baby
|
|
Just in case he decides to come home
|
|
Can't (ooh, ah) you see the light?
|
|
Can't (ooh, ah) you see the light?
|
|
Keepin (ooh, ah) a light, baby
|
|
Just in case he decides to come home
|
|
Oh, (Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him) just in case, just in case
|
|
I'm keeping a light, baby (Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him)
|
|
Just in case, just in case
|
|
Oh say can you see (Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him)
|
|
My light, shinin,' shining, (Just in case) shining
|
|
I wonder can you see my light shinin, (Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him, just in case) burnin, shinin, burnin, shinin, burnin
