Let Me Come On Home Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh baby, yeah, I want to come home to you
Baby, yeah, oh, said, I got to get home to you
Days and nights, feeling so blue, baby
Lord, I just don't know what I'm gonna do
Oh, baby, yeah yeah, said I wanna come home

[Verse 2]
Oh baby, you're one thousand miles away
Baby, yeah, baby, you're just one thousand miles away, yeah
Take these chains from 'round my heart
Never, never, never leave you, no, no, you'll never be apart
Baby, baby, baby, baby, please, please, oh, let me come on home to you
Yeah, yeah

[Outro]
Oh, I love you, baby, let me come on home
Please, please, please, please, baby
Please let me come on home to you, girl
Crying my eyes out over you
I don't know nothing in the world that I'm gonna do
But I'm gonna
Come on, come on, come on, girl, I said I got to get home
Yeah, baby girl, I love you, honey
Please let me come home
Oh please, please, let me, let me, let me, let me come on home now

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
