Take a mournful light, no one to love and a broken heart
Seems like the whole world has got me down, I'm falling apart
I could find a thousand places to go but everybody is gone, oh baby
My pockets full of telephone numbers and no telephone home
Oh, it's been this way (been this way)
Since you been gone away, Lord (gone away)
No ifs (no ifs), no way (no way)
And no maybe
I miss my baby
I miss my baby
If you see her, you can't miss her, she's got everything, yes, she do now
Not what Tom, Dick or Harry gave her but what mother nature brings, yes, she do
A heart pure as gold to match her eyes that shines like fire, ah baby
She makes, she make me love her, she's my heart's desire, yeah, yes, you are
Oh, it's been this way (been this way)
Since you been gone away (gone away)
No, no ifs (no ifs), no way (no way)
And know maybe
Lord knows I miss my baby, oh yeah
I miss my baby, help me somebody)
Oh, it's been this way (been this way)
Since my love's been gone away (gone away)
No ifs (no ifs), no, no way (no way)
And know baby (maybe)
That I miss my baby, oh yeah
I miss my baby, help me somebody
I miss my baby
