Baby when I heard those ugly things
That came out of your pretty little mouth
I packed up my beat up suitcase
And took the first train south

But I did not say, no mumbling word
Not a mumbling word, did I say
But I did not say, no mumbling word
I just went on my way, yeah, I went on my way back home
Oh, on my way back home, baby

You see, it doesn't matter now
What really good it all would do
To chapter and verse those heartaches
That I been hurting over you

But I did not say, no mumbling word
Not a mumbling word, did I say
I did not say, no mumbling word
I just went on my way, yeah, I went on my way back home
Oh, on my way back home, baby
Oh, on my way back home

Baby just wait, wait a little bit now
Oh just wait a little bit honey...
