I've been pining away I guess you could say I'm a fool for your love
I sit at home most every night and count the stars above
You just don't understand I need a man I can't hold a memory
Aw come home daddy make sweet sweet love to me

Anybody can see the trouble with me is these empty boudoir blues
If I ever get you back home again I'm gonna brand your rambling shoes
But you won't want to leave you wouldn't believe
All the love I guarantee
Aw come home daddy make sweet sweet love to me

Send a card send a wire say you're on your way
Don't be late I can't wait another lonely day
Send a card send a wire say you're on your way
Don't be late I can't wait another lonely day

Better put on the speed 'cause honey I need your attention right away
I hate to tell you but second best is looking better every day
You just don't understand I need a man I can't hold a memory
Aw come home daddy make sweet sweet love to me
