Leave A Message, Juanita Lyrics

Well, it's been three days
And I haven't heard a single word
But my message lights are blinking
Everyday when I get home from work
Hesitation then I hang up
And I'm hoping it was you who phoned me
So I'm gonna change my greeting
To a message that is for you only

I wanna make it clear
Next time you call here
Leave a message Juanita
Let me know that you called
Tell me how I can reach ya
Is there hope after all?

My love, the tears we cried won't be in vain
Honey, I'll take all the blame
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
Leave a message, Juanita
And I'll crawl back to you
I called up your momma
Even talked to all your friends
But they wasn't talking
And they told me not to call again

I said, "I understand"
But would somebody help me please
If you see Juanita could you
Tell her that I'm on my knees

I wanna make it right
I miss her everyday and night
Leave a message Juanita
Let me know that you called
Tell me how I can reach ya
Is there hope after all?
My love, the tears we cried won't be in vain
Honey, I'll take all the blame
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
Leave a message, Juanita
And I'll crawl back to you

Leave a message, Juanita
And I'll crawl back to you
Leave a message, Juanita
And I'll crawl back to you
