I'm sittin' here waitin'
Well, I'm waiting for you to call me on the phone
Sittin' here waitin'
I'm waiting for you to call me on the phone
Yes, you been, you been gone twenty four hours
Baby, that's twenty three hours too long

You know I roll and I tumble
Oh, I couldn't heartless stay in my bed
Yes, you know I roll and I tumble
I couldn't heartless stay in my bed
But when I try, try to eat my breakfast
Oh, you know the blues are all in my bread

Next day I was on my knees and prayin'
I was prayin' for her return
Next day I was on my knees and prayin'
Oh, I was prayin' for her return
You know if you, if you don't come by
Baby, my heart is gonna yearn

Sittin' here waitin'
Oh, I'm waiting for her to call me on the phone
Sittin' here waitin'
Yes, I'm waiting for her to call me on the phone
You know you been gone twenty four hours
Baby, that's twenty three hours too long
Twenty three hours too long
