Ooh...ooh...ooh...

Ooh...ooh...ooh...



I'll keep working my way back to you, babe

With a burning love inside

Hey, I'm workin' my way back to you, babe

And the happiness that died



I let it get away

Do, do, do, do, do

(Been paying every day)

Do, do, do, do, do



When you were so in love with me

I played around like I was free

Thought I could have my cake and eat it too

But how I cried over losing you



See, I'm down and out

But I ain't about to go living my life without you

Hey, every day I made you cry

I'll pay and, girl, till the day I die



I'll keep workin' my way back to you, babe

With a burnin' love inside

Yeah, I'm workin' my way back to you, babe

And the happiness that died



I let it get away

Do, do, do, do, do

(Been payin' every day)

Do, do, do, do, do



Oh, I used to love to make you cry

It made me feel like a man inside

If I had been a man in reality

You'd be here, baby, loving me



Now my nights are long and lonely

And I ain't too proud, babe, I just miss you so

Girl, but you're too proud and you won't give in

But when I think about all I could win



I'll keep working my way back to you, babe

With a burning love inside

Yeah, I'm workin' my way back to you, babe

And the happiness that died



I let it get away

Do, do, do, do, do

(Been payin' every day)

Do, do, do, do, do



(You, you, babe)

My road is kind of long

(You, you, babe)

I just gotta get back home



Whoa, I'm really sorry for actin' that way

I'm really sorry, ooh, little girl

I'm really sorry for throwin' away our love, sweet little girl

I'm really sorry for makin' you cry

I really mean it, don't you hear me talkin' to you

I'm really sorry for telling you lies for so long



Oh, please, forgive me, girl, come on (Give me a chance)

Won't you forgive me, girl, hey, (Let's have romance)

Ooh, forgive me, girl (Let's try again)

Come on, forgive me, girl

I want you over and over and over and over and over again



Won't you give me one more try

If you don't I believe I'll die



I'm sorry for actin' that way

I'm really sorry, little bitty girl

I'm really sorry for throwin' away our love



Please, baby, forgive me, girl, oh (Give me a chance)

Won't you forgive me, girl, hey (Let's have romance)

Please forgive me, girl (Let's try again)

Forgive me, girl

I want you over and over and over and over and over again



I keep working my way back to you, babe

With a burnin' love inside

Hey, I'm workin' my way back to you, babe

And the happiness that died



I let it get away

Do, do, do, do, do

(Payin' every day)

Do, do, do, do, do



I keep working my way back to you, babe

Oh... yeah (Burning love inside)

I keep workin' my way back to you, babe

And the happiness that died



I let it get away

(Do, do, do, do, do)

Paying every day

(Do, do, do, do, do)



I keep working my way back to you, babe

Yeah... (Burning love inside)

(Working my way back to you, babe)

And the happiness that died
