My Baby's Walkin'

I got back to the flat found my laundry and the cat
but no woman to keep me warm.
Just a note she wrote
using words I shouldn’t quote.
She's leavin'.  Now she's gone.

Now what do you do when your baby says you're through
and you're left with nothin' to hold?
Well. my baby's out the door. She ain't comin' back for more, 
now this room's gettin' mighty cold     
And all I can say is...  

Chorus:    
My baby's walkin', she ain't talkin'. She just up'd and walked away.
But I ain't squawkin' I'm done mockin' her ways.
Ain't got a damn thing to say.
But she's taken from me what I've been dreamin'.
taken from me the love that gives me reason
Oh, how I want her to stay.

Well, let me tell Ya 'bout my baby,
when we met I knew that maybe,
she would someday leave me holdin' the bag.
I can’t say she didn't warn me 
but the shock has really torn me.
Since she left my life’s been really a drag.
    
Now what do you do when your baby says you're through
and you're left with nothin' to hold?
Well. my baby's out the door. She ain't comin' back for more, 
now this room's gettin' mighty cold     
I’ll tell Ya one more time...  
        
Repeat Chorus

Ah, you know I didn't like that bitch anyway. Aaah!
