My daddy told me, always be strong son,
Don't you ever cry.
You find the pretty girls and then you love them
Then you say goodbye.
I never dreamed that you would leave me
But now you're gone.
I never dreamed that I would miss you.
Woman, won't [bad word] back home?

I never dreamed that you could hurt me
And leave me blue.
I've had a thousand, maybe more
But never one like you.
I never dreamed I could feel so empty
But now I'm down.
I never dreamed that I would beg you.
Woman, I need you now!

It seems to me I took your love for granted,
It feels to me that this time I was wrong, so wrong.
Oh, lord, now I feel so lonely.
I say, woman, won't [bad word] back home?

I tried to do what my daddy taught me
But I think he knew.
Someday that I would find one woman like you.
I never dreamed that it could feel so good, lord
That two could be one.
I never knew about sweet love
So, woman, won't [bad word] back home?
Oh, baby, won't [bad word] back home?
