Baby’s Blue

[Verse 1] Watching that clock Tick-tocking on by Had to talk myself Out of up and quitting outright But I heard that we were working late I called my baby on my next break She was a hot mess She had a bad day She took a deep breath Next thing she had to say Was "honey I want you" [Chorus] Baby's blue Yeah she needs me by her side So blue I can hear the tears in her eyes Lord knows I need this job There's bills to pay But I'd walk away if I had to Mm, baby's blue [Verse 2] Finally off work Crank up my pick-up Drive off like a madman 'Cause she needs my love Like a songbird needs a tune I'll tell you just what I'm gonna do I'm gonna Wrap her up tight Kiss the tears out of her eyes Man I swear If I hit another red light I'm gonna drive on through I'm gonna drive on through 'cause [Chorus] Baby's blue Yeah she needs me by her side So blue I can hear the tears in her eyes Lord knows I need that job There's bills to pay But I'd walk away if I had to Mm, baby's blue [Outro] Oh, the kind of fire my baby's got Always passed the point of red hot It's blue 'Cause she needs me by her side So blue I can hear the tears in her eyes Lord knows I need that job 'Cause there's bills to pay But I'd walk away if I had to Mm, baby's blue My baby's blue
