Someday baby you know it won't be long
Someday baby you know it won't be long
You've got to look for your baby
God knows I'll be gone

Don't have no more mercy, please
Don't have no mercy on me
Don't have no more mercy, please
Don't have no mercy on me

I'm my mother's baby boy, you know
I'm just a lost, lost sheep
Someday baby you know you'll be all alone
Someday, someday, baby you know
You'll be all alone

If I mistreated you baby, have mercy
God knows I didn't mean no harm
Hey little sis, will you please come home to me?
Hey little sis, will you please come home to me?

Ain't nothing in this world baby but love
I'm going to love you once baby, I got to love you twice
You know the third time woman you've got to be my wife
Come home little sis come home
Now if I've been a bad boy, God knows
I didn't mean no harm
