[Verse 2]

When my baby take me back again
God knows I won't leave my home no more
When my baby take me back again
God knows I won't leave my home no more

Yeah I just stand on my baby
And God knows I would settle down

[Verse 3]

We ain't no [?] travellin' people
You know my clothes got paper thin
Ain't no [?] people
You know my clothes got paper thin

You know just said you want no man
When my baby take me back again
