stephen murphy - get back lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
sittin’ in a barroom, about a quarter past ten
i order one more whiskey, and hit the road again
i got to get back home into my baby’s arms
the one thing i’ve missed is a loving chance

[chorus]
gotta get back, back down to new orleans
i gotta get back, where my baby’s waitin’ for me
i gotta get back, back down to new orleans
i gotta get back, please, lord, i’m on my knees

[verse 2]
i’ve been a rambling boy, and i left my home
i left my darling sweetheart, they’re all alone
but then she wrote me a letter and was beggin’ please
for me to come back home and to never leave

[chorus]
gotta get back, back down to new orleans
i gotta get back, where my baby’s waitin’ for me
i gotta get back, back down to new orleans
i gotta get back, please, lord, i’m on my knees

[verse 3]
well, just like my daddy and his daddy before
i was bound to ramble, i was bound to roam
there’s nothin’ i could do, it was in my blood
but then she wrote me that letter, it hit me with a thud
[chorus]
gotta get back, back down to new orleans
i gotta get back, where my baby’s waitin’ for me
i gotta get back, back down to new orleans
i gotta get back, please, lord, i’m on my knees

[verse 4]
i hit the open road, i ain’t got much time
i got to get to my baby before the sun does shine
well i’m burnin’ rubber and makin’ tracks
and i hope my baby will take me back

[chorus]
gotta get back, back down to new orleans
i gotta get back, where my baby’s waitin’ for me
i gotta get back, back down to new orleans
i gotta get back, please, lord, i’m on my knees

[outro]
yeah, i gotta get back, back down to new orleans
i gotta get back, where my baby’s waitin’ for me
i gotta get back, back down to new orleans
i gotta get back, please, lord, i’m on my knees
