Lyrics
Why Can't You Bring Me Home
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Why do we always meet on the edge of town?
Why do we have to wait till the sun goes down?
Where do you live and why don't you even give me a place to go?
CHORUS:
Come on baby, why can't you bring me
Baby baby, why can't you bring me
Come on baby, why can't you bring me home?
Baby baby, why can't you bring me home?
I'll ask around but nobody knows for sure
But they agree that your folks are mighty rude
Are you ashamed of the way you were raised,
And that's why it stays unknown?
(chorus)
You may not wear such pretty clothes
But when you're in my arms, you love like a rose
What do I care if I see a broken chair?
Why do I need the best kind of silverware?
All that I need to make me complete is your tender love alone
(repeat chorus and fade
