Oh, I'm so alone.

Hey daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, now.

No, no, no!!!

No, no, no!!!

Alright!!!

Alright!!!

Oh, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord!!!

Hon, when I'm sittin' round late in the evenin', child,

Wonderin' why, why, why did I ever leave, whoa, yeah.

Sit around, I'm a-wonderin'

Why, why did I ever leave,

Hey, I gotta know now.

Well, I went out searchin' for somethin', baby,

I left it behind me, honey, now I see, yeah.

Well alright, well alright.

Well I guess I move once too often, babe,

An' I woke up and found myself alone.

Whoa, I guess I moved just one too many times,

Woke up an' found myself alone,

Hey, I don't like it!

Cold sheets made me realize

Catch me, daddy, 'cause I'm movin' on.

Hey, hey, whoaaa !!!

Come on up, come on up, come up I've got to move on

Come on up, because I've got to go

Because you know I got to find me my baby, yeah

I got to find me my baby, yeah

You know I got to find me my baby, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

I've got to find me my man, come on,

Come, take it on down, take it on down now,

A little softer babe, said a little softer babe,

S-s-s-softer now, you like it like that,

Said I like it like that,

Feels so good to me, feels so good to me, yeah, yeah

I like it like that, yeah I like it like that.

Honey, I wanna kneel till I get to ya,

I wanna tell you something baby

I wanna tell you something baby now

I wanna tell you about my baby, Lord

Tell you 'bout my man.

You know, I want ya, need ya, I gotta have ya

'Cause I want ya need ya, 'cause I gotta have ya

'Cause this my-my-my-my-my-my-my-man

My-my-my-my-my-my-my-man now.

Said I want you I need you, babe I've gotta have you,

I want you I need you, babe I've gotta have you,

I've been lonely in the morning

Hon, I've been lonely at night.

I've been lonely in the afternoon

I said, "Janis, you know it ain't right".

Baby, it's time you would hold me

Yeah, hey, comin' home, babe,

Yeah, hey, comin' home, babe,

Yeah, yeah, comin' home, babe

Yeah, yeah, comin' home, babe

Yeah, yeah, comin' home, baby.

Whoaaa!!

Oh, I might take a plane, baby,

Oh, I might take a train, baby.

Oh, I guess I might finally walk in there,

'Cause I gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,

I say alright!

Yeah!

Ooh!

Hey!
