Yeah yeah

Yeah yeah
Come on and see about me
Listen
You've been gone too long
You know you left by my home
Why don't you reconsider mama baby
Bring your fine self home
You've been gone five minutes
And you know that's too long
Why don't you think about me baby
And bring your fine self home
Come on and see about me baby
Come on and see about me
Yeah yeah
Don't you know you worry me
Come on and see about me
Don't you know you can worry me
Come on and see about me, baby
Don't you know you make me sick
You give me a whole lot of pain
Come on and close to me baby
Why don't you listen to me sing
