Baby's Coming Back

I knew that when I saw her

That my life would soon move over from

The fast lane

Gone would be the days of all my drinkin'

And my carryin' on

But when I settled down

The party king uncrowned

The stubborn memory hadn't faded

Too many dumb mistakes

And the grief it makes

Left nothin' else to be debated

And if you say that you

Understand then you're lyin'

But if you figure that I'm alright

Now I can't deny it

Baby's coming back

Baby's coming back

So I'm on my best behaviour

I can't take it any more

I just woke up on the floor today

I've long run out of my last chance

But she's on her way

If I had a dollar

For every single time that I fought her

I'd buy a handgun

But that couldn't shoot away

The bullseye that she made on my heart

And if I sound like a beaten man well

I guess so

But on her its the sweetest prize and i

Can't let go

What I told her on the telephone was that i'd

Been so bad

I wouldn't blame her if she mowed down these

Wild oats i'd sown

But when she said she'd give me one

More chance

I said knock three times when you arrive

Baby's coming back...(you know the rest)
