Everything is wrong since me and my baby parted All day long I'm walkin' 'cause I couldn't get my car started Laid off from job and I can't afford to check it I wish somebody'd come along and run in to it and wreck it Come on, since my baby parted, come on I can't get started, come on I can't afford to check it I wish somebody'd come along and run into it and wreck it Everything is wrong since I been without you Every night I lay awake thinkin' about you Every time the phone rings sounds like thunder Some stupid jerk tryin' to reach another number Come on, since I been without you, come on Steady thinkin' 'bout you, come on Phone sounds like thunder Some stupid jerk tryin' to reach another number Everything is wrong since I last saw you baby I really want to see you and I don't mean maybe I'm doin' everything tryin' to make you see That I belong to you honey and you belong to me So come on, I want to see you baby, come on I don't mean maybe, come on I'm tryin' to make you see that I belong to you and you belong to me Come on
