I know I should go out
Be seen here and there
But my friends have found out
My baby don't care

I don't go out walkin'
I ain't for no talkin'
My baby's done left me
Just a-sittin' and a-rockin'

If I had been schemin'
Instead of just dreamin'
He'd never have left me
Just a-sittin' and a-rockin'

Sittin' all day without holdin' my baby
Makes me so blue and sad
If he don't hurry and come back
It's a cinch to drive me mad

Now if I don't find him
I hope you'll remind him
That I'm stayin' where he left me
Just a-sittin' and a-rockin' all day
