Folks said that you found someone new
To do the thing I used to do for you
Just call my name, I'm not ashamed
I'll come running back to you

Can't sleep at night, I can't eat a bite
When you were mine I didn't treat your right
Just call my name, I know, I know I'm not ashamed
I'll come running back to you

Just like a king, I've lost everything
I sit all alone on my throne
I've got my pride but deep down inside
I'm yours and yours alone, whoa oh

I try to forget, have no regrets
This love of ours could always start anew
Just call my name, whoa, I know I'm not ashamed
I'll come running back to you

Just like a king, I've lost everything
I sit all alone on my throne
I've got my pride but deep down inside
I'm yours and yours alone, whoa oh

I try to forget, have no regrets
This love of ours could always start anew
Just call my name, I know, I know, I know I'm not ashamed
I'll come running back to you

    Perfect example of early Sam Cooke. #18 on the Billboard pop chart in '57 showed him to be a crossover power even in the early days.

    Sam Cooke is amazing. One of my favourites of his.
