Tell My Baby I Love Her

(album: Rockin' Rollin' Johnny Horton - 1981)

Well, I said my baby was a-doing me wrong
So I packed my bags and left her
I told her a lie 'cause I'm going back home
Just to tell my baby I love her
To tell my baby I love her

Well, the nights were long and I felt so bad
My heart was sad and heavy
I'm going back home where I belong
Just to tell my baby I love her
To tell my baby I love her

I been walking this road since late last night
And the weather is cold and weary
But the thought of my baby's warm red lips
Keeps me warm and cheery, because I love her dearly

Well, I'm almost home and I see her standing there
Waving from the window
With a smile on her face and a tear in her eye
I know my baby still loves me
I know my baby still loves me
