Now people you know I am

I need all I can do

(huh) - but I got a problem now

And I'm gonna tell you about it



I'm looking for this woman you see

Listen, this is the way the story goes



Looking out my window, looking at the rain

Nothing left but sorrow, nothing left but pain

Why you'd go and leave me

Set me alone and blue

Looking out my window, woman, trying to find you



Why did you leave me

Why did you grieve me



Looking out my window, what do I see

Nobody's crying, everything's bad in me

I don't think that this is, so alone and blue

Looking out my window baby, trying to find you



Why did you leave me

Why did you grieve me?

Oh, uh, ah, oooo



I'd like to tell you about this little girl that left us so alone and blue

The trouble is, if I paint the picture too well, you might fall in love with her too

She was about 5' 6 and a little bag of tricks

My mama told me to watch myself, but I didn't listen

Because, when you baby, I'd stretch out my arms



Looking out my window, not a railroad track

Waiting for that little brown eyed girl, she's coming back

I gotta hear the wind blowing, down the line

Come on back girl, to be mine all mine



Why did you leave me

Why did you grieve me



wooooaaah, baby come on home, I'm so alone

You know and I don't care what the world might say

I'm gonna love you anyway



Oh baby, I do all I need, I'm begging you please, oh

Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby, oh baby,

Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby

Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby

Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby



I love you, I love you

Come on home

Come on home, baby

Come on home, baby

Come on home, baby, to me
