[Intro]
I miss my baby
I miss my baby
[Verse 1]
Take a mournful light, no one to love and a broken heart
Seems like the whole world has got me down, I'm falling a part
I could find a thousand places to go
But everybody is gone, oh baby
My pockets full of telephone numbers and no telephone home
[Chorus]
Oh, it's been this way (Been this way)
Since you been gone away, Lord (Gone away)
No it's (No it's), no way (No way)
And know baby
I miss my baby
I miss my baby
[Verse 2]
If you see her, you can't miss her
She's got everything, yes, you do now
Love was tough, thinkin' how we gave up
But what mother nature brings, yes, she do
A heart pure as gold to match your eyes that shines like fire, ah baby
She makes, she make the lover
She's my heart's desire, yes, you are
[Chorus]
Oh, it's been this way (Been this way)
Since you been gone away (Gone away)
No, no, it's (No it's), no way (No way)
And know baby
Lord knows I miss my baby (Oh yeah)
I miss my baby (Help me somebody)
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Oh, it's been this way (Been this way)
Since my love's been gone away (Gone away)
No it's (No it's), no, no way (No way)
And know baby (Baby)
That I miss my baby (Oh yeah)
I miss my baby (Help me somebody)
(I miss my baby)
