Come back, from the dead
You left my, my heart here
Say what you will and won't forget
Express disappointment, speak your regrets, yeah
Oh baby call out my name, I'll be where you are
I'll be very still, step down to my heart

Amend this broken
If only you'd wake up from your constant possum playing
If only you'd wake up

I'm begging you sugar, have some leniency
Call the president and ask him, baby, to pardon me 
And bring you back to me
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo

And mend this broken
If only you'd quit this nonsense of you possum playing
If only you'd wake up, would you wake up, would you wake up baby, yeah

Yeah, yea
Yeah, yea
Yeah, yea
Heh, heh, ho
Whoa whoo
Ah whoo
Whooo, whoo, whoo
Whoo, whoo, whoo
