Early in the morning 'bout the break of day
That's when my baby went away
Crying and pleading won't do no good
Come back baby, I wish you would

I love you baby, I can't help myself
I wouldn't mistreat you for no one else
Tell me now baby what you trying to do
Love me and another man too
Huggi'n and kissin' late at night
Really make my baby, feel alright

Staying out drinking all night long
Cold now, baby, I wanna come home
Please pretty baby give me one more chance
You know I love you, wanna be your man

Crying and pleading won't do no good
Come back baby I wish you would
Huggin' and kissin' late at night
Really make my baby, feel alright

Early in the morning before the break of day
That's when my baby went away
Crying and pleading won't do no good
Come back baby, I wish you would

I love you baby, I can't help myself
I wouldn't mistreat you for no one else
Tell me now baby what you trying to do
Loving me and another man too
Huggin' and kissin' late at night
Really make my baby, feel alright
