My daddy told me always be strong son
Don ' t you ever cry
You find the pretty girls
And then you love them
Then you say goodbye
I never dreamed that you would leave me
But now you ' re gone gone gone
I never dreamed that I would miss you
Woman won ' t you come back home
I never dreamed that you could hurt me
And leave me blue
I ' ve had a thousand maybe more
But never one like you
I never dreamed I could feel so empty
But now I ' m down down down
I never dreamed that I would beg you
Woman I need you now
I need you now
It seems to me I took your love for granted
It feels to me that this time I was wrong
So wrong
Oh Lord now I feel so lonely
I say woman won ' t you come back home
I tried to do what my daddy taught me
But I think he knew
Someday that I would find one woman like you
I never dreamed that it could feel so good Lord
That two could be one
I never knew about sweet love
So woman won ' t you come back home
