Confessin’ the Blues (1978) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Baby, here I stand before you with my heart in my hand
I want you to read it mama, hopin' that you'll understand
Well baby, please don't dog me 'round
I'd rather love you pretty baby
More than anyone else in town
[Verse 2]
Because you so nice and loving
And you have such pleasing ways
Take me to your home, be there the rest of my days
That's the truth mama, well you know I wouldn't lie
'Cause if I don't love you baby, well I swear I hope I die
[Bridge]
Well baby, don't you want a man like me?
Yeah baby, don't you want a man like me?
Just think about your future
Forget about your used-to-be
[Saxophone, Trumpet, and Guitar Solos]
[Verse 3]
Now when my days are long and dreary
And the sun refuse to shine
I never be blue and lonely
If I knew that you were mine
Well baby, won't you make everything alright?
Ah will it be today baby
Or will it be tomorrow night
[Verse 4]
This is my confession mama
And I'm thrilled by all your charms
Now you know that I'm in heaven
When you hold me in your arms
Now baby, can I have you for myself?
You were meant for me mama
I don't want nobody else
Oh yeah
