Mmmm mm mm
Yeah
Whoa
Ay-ay ay ay
[Verse]
Somebody tell me
What's going wrong
I aint seen my baby
In far too long
Somebody please tell me
What's going wrong
They say them ladies broke
And my baby's gone
Listen
It's been a couple of days
And real dark nights
I miss my only child
I aint seen her since that night
She left home about eight
And never to return
Our body's floatin' -- Floatin' into that river
[Chorus]
I gotta know
What's going wrong
I aint seen my baby
In far too long
Somebody please tell me
What's going wrong
I aint seen my baby
In far too long
[Verse]
I been searching all around
Day and day and night
Somebody please tell me
I need to feel somebody
So many souls crying
How could it be?
'Cuz every step I take
I can't think
______(?)
[Chorus]
Somebody tell me
What's going wrong
I aint seen my baby
In far too long
Somebody please tell me
What's going wrong
I aint seen my baby
In far too long
Please somebody tell me
What's going wrong
I aint seen my baby
In far too long
Somebody please tell me
What's going wrong
I aint seen my baby
In far too long
Please somebody tell me
Yeah-ah
Please somebody tell me
Yeah-ah
Please somebody tell me
Yeah-ah
Please somebody tell me
Please somebody tell me!
Tell me
Please somebody tell me!
Tell me
Please somebody tell me!
Tell me
Please somebody tell me!
{Somebody tell me}
Please somebody tell me!
Come on and tell me
Please somebody tell me!
Just tell me
Please somebody tell me!
I got to know
Please somebody tell me!
I know you know
{Somebody tell me}
Somebody tell me
Oh my God
Somebody Tell me
Oh my God
