Gotta get back to baby
night train taken too long
Dreaming of a place for two
gotta get home gotta get home
left on a cold friday
as she slept peacefully on clouds
couldnt wake her up
let her sleep a while
as she dreams as she mumbles
All I have is five dollars to my name
how can I make her wife when I havent a dime to claim
So I will I pack up my toothbrush what little clothes I have
tip toe out blue front door leave a simple note
Its not goodbye but I’ll see you soon
Promise I’ll return
What man Am I to lie with you If I have no means of value
I see a future of you with my child
a place we call our own
laying here without purpose means I am not a man of my word
gotta hitch a ride on the friday train
lookin for some form of work
I am coming home baby this train is taking too long
