Long about sundown, I've gotta be on my way
Sad long about sundown, I've gotta be on my way
Goin' back to my woman and this time I'm gonna stay
Yes, I've been gone for a long time, wonder if I'm welcome home
Been gone for a long time, wonder if I'm welcome home
So many things can happen, when a man leaves his baby all alone
Yes, it took a long time, baby, to realize what a fool I've been
Well, I said it took a long, long time, baby, to realize what a fool I've been
When I knock on the door, I wonder will she let me in
Sad long about sundown, I've gotta be on my way
Goin' back to my woman and this time I'm gonna stay
Yes, I've been gone for a long time, wonder if I'm welcome home
Been gone for a long time, wonder if I'm welcome home
So many things can happen, when a man leaves his baby all alone
Yes, it took a long time, baby, to realize what a fool I've been
Well, I said it took a long, long time, baby, to realize what a fool I've been
When I knock on the door, I wonder will she let me in
