Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Got stones in my passway, And my road seems dark at night, I got stones in my passway, And my road seems dark at night, I got pains in my heart, They done taken my appetite. Now when I first saw you, I heard the angels sing, I thought of Adam and Eve and that love thing, Oh I was blinded by the light and I just couldn't see, Papa hiding up in your apple tree. I really hope you're satisfied, I just came back to say goodbye Girl I found your little black book I opened it up to get a second look I saw my best friends' name upon the page Five gold stars beside his name. I really hope you're satisfied, I just came back to say goodbye I just came back to say goodbye (I just came back) Goodbye baby I just came back to say goodbye (I just came back) Goodbye baby I felt real bad, thought I'd give you a call, I didn't look up the number, I just looked on the wall. You know your best friend said you'd gone for the night Going downtown with your jeans on tight. I really hope you're satisfied, I just came back to say goodbye I just came back to say goodbye (I just came back) Goodbye baby I just came back to say goodbye (I just came back) Goodbye baby
