I'm on my way back home
I know I done you wrong
Well I took a chance on losing my man
Did I stay too long?
Darling I was young
I didn't mean no harm
Why, why'd you let me go
When you know I love you so
Please let me come home
I can still see my baby
When I gave him the third degree
He was begging, crying and pleading
Please stay here with me
It was way last year
When I thought I'd roam
Now I feel so bad
'Cause I did you wrong
On my way back home
I hope it ain't too late
Daddy did you wait
'Cause I got my fare
I'll be soon there
I'm on my way back home
Darling I was young
I didn't mean no harm
Please let me come home
