I wonder when my baby's coming home
30 more miles to San Diego
30 more miles and I'll be home
30 more miles to see my woman
Wonder if she's packed her things and gone
And it just don't pay to leave a woman alone too long
30 more miles of pushin' this diesel
How can such a short way seems so long?
Someday, yeah, gonna come in off that road, boy
Find my sweet mama packed and gone
And it just don't pay to leave a woman alone too long
Darling, it's not that I don't trust you
I know what it means to be alone
Try your best to fight off temptation
Your ever lovin' daddy's coming home
30 more miles to San Diego
Ooh, I'm tired, I'm weary to the bone
I have need of my sweet mama's good lovin'
I gotta make up all the time I've been gone
And it just don't pay to leave a woman alone too long
And it just don't pay to leave a woman alone too long
And it just don't pay to leave a woman alone too long
