It's so war-arm in here

Outside the night is clear

Think I need a walk

Have myself a little talk

Sleep, baby slee-eep

While your mama walks the stree-eet tonight

To think about your daddy, boy



(Oh boy) the mood I'm in

The pain I fee-eel in missin' him

Oh boy (oh boy), I can't explain

He haunts my mind, racks my brain...



I could comb every home, every neighbourhood bar

I would ride every greyhound or railroad car

Just to find him and say

Hey, wherever you are

Come on home, we love you, boy



So... I walk and weep

Through the downtown streets I wander sadly

Boy (oh boy), the mood I'm in

The pain I fee-eel in missin' him

Oh boy (oh boy), I can't explain

He haunts my mind, racks my brain



I could comb every home, every neighbourhood bar

I could ride every greyhound or railroad car

Just to find him and say

Hey, wherever you are

Come on home, we love you, boy



(Oh boy), the mood I'm in

The pain I fee-eel in missin' him

Oh boy (oh boy), I can't explain

He haunts my mind, racks my brain [fade]
