Paroles 7 years Everlast

7 years

It's been seven years down the road
I got no more tears in me left to flow
I went and I did my baby wrong
And she left me lonely for so long
Now I'm out here all alone
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home

CHORUS (2x)
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home

It go one for the treble, two for the bass
Used to mess with this girl way back in the days
She was from the PJs and she went both ways
Yeah, the girl was a freak, I used to call her Monique
And before I even speak about knockin' the boots
She say her name been changed to avoid lawsuits
So now we getting' down to the nitty of the gritty
She brought a friend 'round and damn, she was pretty
But Betty was twisted, said her number was listed,
Grabbed my love two fisted, hugged it and kissed it
They say one in the hand is worth two in the bush
But when shove came to push, yo, I have my own theories
World series of love, it's two on one
Until I got caught with the smokin' gun
'Cause wifey came home and she bursted in
Now I'm lookin' for my heart like I'm made from tin
The road that I travel ain't got yellow bricks
My old woman thinks that all men are pricks
And she flipped the script, she put lip to lip
And every time I think about it I just lose my grip

'Cause I've been up and I've been down
And I've been fast and I've been slow
And I've been square and I've been round
And I've been high and I've been low
And I've been cool and I've been calm
And I've been kind and I've been crass
I held the whole right in my palm
I tried to spread it around but it sho' went fast

Lord, won't you please bring my baby home
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home
Bring my baby home

Seven years sure done flown by
I got no more tears in me left to cry
I went and I did my sugar bad
I lost the best thing I ever had
Now I'm out here on my own
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home

CHORUS (4x)

Bring my baby home...
