My baby wrote me a ten-page letter
|
She said, "I'll be coming home, boy, and I hope for the better
|
And you know that your mind it changes
|
Oh something like the weather
|
And I'll be coming home, boy, and I hope for the better"
|
|
This is what she said
|
"Dark clouds hanging over your head
|
Lightning and thunder
|
For every drop of rain that falls
|
I know you want to see your mama"
|
|
I said, "Baby, come on, I got to get myself together
|
Cause you know my mind, it changes
|
Oh, something like the weather
|
And I'm going to be coming home, boy
|
And I hope for the better"
|
|
This is what she said
|
"It's raining and there is snow on the side
|
You got another woman by your side
|
You got to stop playing them tricks
|
You got to get that woman out there quick"
|
|
Dark clouds hanging over your head
|
Lighting and thunder
|
For every drop of rain that falls, boy
|
I know you want to see your mama
|
|
I said, "Baby, alright, I got to get myself together, come on"
|
I said "You know that my mind it changes
|
Oh something like the weather"
|
This is what she said, "I'll be coming home, boy
|
Oh, I hope for the better"
|
|
Oh, this is what she said, "I'm coming home
|
I got get there, boy, I'm coming home
|
I got to get there, I got to see who you with
|
You got to get yourself together"
