Baby's Blue

(album: Cowboy Like Me - 2014)

Watching that clock
Tic-toc'ing on by
Had to talk myself
Out of up and quitting outright
But I heard that we were working late
I called my baby on my next break
She was a hot mess
She had a bad day
She took a deep breath
Next thing she had to say
Was honey I want you

Baby's blue
Yeah she needs me by her side
So blue
I can hear the tears in her eyes
Lord knows I need this job
There's bills to pay
But I'd walk away if I had to
Mm, baby's blue

Finally off work
Crank up my pick-up
Drive off like a madman
Cause she needs my love
Like a songbird needs a tune
I'll tell you just what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna
Wrap her up tight
Kiss the tears out of her eyes
Man I swear
If I hit another red light
I'm gonna drive on through
I'm gonna drive on through cause..

Baby's blue
Yeah she needs me by her side
So blue
I can hear the tears in her eyes
Lord knows I need that job
There's bills to pay
But I'd walk away if I had to
Mm, baby's blue

Oh, the kind of fire my baby's got
Always passed the point of red hot
It's blue
Cause she needs me by her side
So blue
I can hear the tears in her eyes
Lord knows I need that job
Cause there's bills to pay
But I'd walk away if I had to
Mm, baby's blue
My baby's blue
