When I had you
I treated you bad, bad, bad, bad
And wrong my dear
And since
Since you been away
Don't cha know
I sit around
With my head hangin' down
And i, I wonder
Who's lovin' you

I, I, I, I, I, I should have never, never ever
Ever made you cry 
And since
Little girl since you been gone, I want you to know
Don't cha know
I sit around
With my head hangin' down
And I, I wonder
Who's lovin' you

Listen, life without love
Is oh so lonely
I don't think, that I, I want you to know that
I don't think
That I'm gonna make it
All of my life
All my love
Belongs to you only
Come on home girl
Come on and take it 

Because
I can do 
All I can do
Since you been gone 
And you, you, you, you baby ever wonder in a worry about what I do

Don't cha know I 
Sit around 
Believe me, baby, with my head hangin' down
And I, I wonder
Who's lovin' you
