A beautiful song about missing your lover when away on tour with your band.
The track was originally issued as the b-side to “Detroit Rock City.” However, when it became more popular than its a-side it was released as its own single, this time with “Detroit Rock City” as the b-side.
[Verse 1]
Beth, I hear you calling
But I can't come home right now
Me and the boys are playing
And we just can't find the sound
[Chorus]
Just a few more hours
And I'll be right home to you
I think I hear them calling
Oh, Beth, what can I do? Beth, what can I do?
[Verse 2]
You say you feel so empty
That our house just ain't a home
And I'm always somewhere else
And you're always there alone
[Chorus]
Just a few more hours
And I'll be right home to you
I think I hear them calling
Oh, Beth, what can I do? Beth, what can I do?
[Instrumental break 1:30-2:06]
[Outro]
Beth, I know you're lonely
And I hope you'll be alright
'Cause me and the boys will be playing
All night
