Ooo-we-baby, I had a real bad dream last night
Yeah, baby, I had a real bad dream last night
It started 'bout four this mornin' and It last 'till
broad day light
Well I tossed and tumbled baby, Lord, until the crack
of dawn
Yeah I-I-I tossed 'till the crack of dawn
Then I woke up screamin', 'cause I dreamed that you
had gone
I put my hand on your pillow
To see if ev'thing was still okay
But I should have known baby
You were gone to stay
I woke up screamin'
And I'm still in misery
And I'll keep right on screamin'
'Till you come back home to me, yeah
Woo! oh oh! Alright baby!
I put my hand on your pillow
To see if ev'thing was still okay
But I should have known baby
You were gone-on-on-on-on
I woke up screamin'
And I'm still in misery
And I'll keep right on screamin'
'Till you've come back home to me
Ah, ah, ah
