If You Don't Come Back
A noise woke me up this morning I looked through the Venetian blind You were gone, and the car was gone And I almost lost my mind
If you don't come back If you don't come back today Well, you can call up the people in the crazy house To take this crazy man away
I threw myself against the wall now I ripped up my clothes and I sobbed I ran into the street, in my stocking feet Yelling 'Police! I've been robbed'
If you don't come back If you don't come back today, babe Well, you can call up the people in the crazy house And take this crazy man away
Mrs A is talkin' about me To the people way across the street She says 'I cooked that boy a bucket of soup But the poor thing doesn't eat'
If you don't come back If you don't come back today, babe Well, you can call up the people in the crazy house To take this crazy man away
The doctor come up to see me To check me with a fine-tooth comb He said 'You ain't sick, but you're gonna die If you don't get your baby back home'
If you don't come back If you don't come back today, babe Well, you can call up the people in the crazy house And take this crazy man away
If you don't come back If you don't come back today, babe Well, you can call up the people in the crazy house And take this crazy man away
