(Slow blues, warm organ, soft guitar bends, dusty groove) Verse 1 Stepped up to the tee, sun hangin’ low Had you in my hand, didn’t wanna let you go Gave you one last look, said “baby, fly true” Next thing I know… I done lost you Baby... come back Baby... come back Verse 2 Heard that driver sing, oh it cut so deep Sent you cryin’ through the trees where the shadows creep Now I’m walkin’ these woods callin’ out your name Ain’t nothin’ but silence… and me to blame Chorus Baby... come back Baby... come back (organ solo) I’m so sorry… for hittin’ you so hard Didn’t mean to send you so far, so far If you come back, I’ll treat you right No more swingin’ like I’m in a fight Don’t hide no more… baby please Come back home through these lonely trees Verse 3 Checked every bunker, every patch of rough Talkin’ to myself, man this game is tough You were my number one, clean and bright Now I’m down to a stranger that don’t feel right Baby... please come back Baby... please come back (organ solo) Pre-Chorus I swear I’ll be gentle, I’ll take it slow Just a smooth little swing, let the good times flow Chorus I’m so sorry… for hittin’ you so hard Didn’t mean to break your little heart If you come back, I’ll change my ways Keep you safe through all my plays Don’t hide no more… baby please Come roll back home through these lonely trees Bridge (guitar crying, organ swelling) Maybe you’re out there by the old oak tree Or floatin’ in the water just rememberin’ me I didn’t mean it… I lost control Now I’m just a man with a half-empty soul Breakdown (spoken blues) Yeah… I see you hidin’ in that long grass… I ain’t mad at ya… I just want ya back… Final Chorus baby... come back baby... come back where you at baby... please don't leave I’m so sorry… for hittin’ you so far Shoulda known just who you are If you come back, I’ll ease my swing You won’t feel a heavy thing Don’t hide no more… baby please Come roll back home… back to me Outro Ohhh… little ball… Why you gotta hide from me…
