Lyrics

When your way gets dark, baby, turn your lights up high
(What's the matter with 'em?)
Where can I see my man, Lord, if he come easin' by
I take my daily...
(Daily 'fore day prayer!)
I take my daily...
Trouble at home, baby
(Tryin' to blow me down!)
It wouldn't hurt so bad but the news all over this...
I love my baby an' I
(Tell the world I do)
What made me love her, you will come an' love her, too
Hey, someday, baby
(You know, an' it won't be long)
You'll call at me, baby, an', an' I'll be gone
I'm goin' away, baby
(Don't you wanna go?)
I'm goin' away, baby, don't you wanna go?
