When I Get Lonely

(album: Play - 1999)

Your Daddy called you down to the farm
Said "He needed the crop in the barn yesterday"
Two days gone six days there
All I do is sit and stare at a TV

Well, I ain't done nothing yet
But baby, don't forget how I get when I get lonely
Well, I ain't strayed a little bit
'Cause baby, you're still it, but I'm getting lonely

Your sister kept you busy all last week
Moving her back to Albuquerque New Mexico
Your girlfriend called the week before that
Said, "She was sad and didn't want to be all alone"

Well, I ain't done nothing yet
But baby, don't forget how I get when I get lonely
Well, I ain't strayed a little bit
'Cause baby, you're still it, but I'm getting lonely

I painted the house and I painted the town
Just keeping busy till you get back around to loving me
It's Friday night the phone just rang
It's that girl ole' what's her name to say she's free

Well, I ain't done nothing yet
But baby, don't forget how I get when I get lonely
Well, I ain't strayed a little bit
'Cause baby, you're still it, but I'm getting lonely

I'm getting lonely
Don't let me get lonely
