Twenty-Three Hours Songtext
von Little Milton

It′s been twenty three hours
And seventeen minutes
And thirteen seconds

Since you been gone
My blood pressure keeps going up, oh
My pulse tone got reel weak
I can't stand it, baby
Oh no, being alone
Listen

We had a silly fight
And we both played our games
So let′s give it one more try
And you know I'll take the blame, oh


Come back, baby, come back
Give me one more chance
You know I'll change my ways
Oh let′s try it over
Oh let′s try it over
Oh let's try it over
One more time

Oh baby, oh baby, oh yeah, listen

I stood by the telephone
Waiting for you to call
Hoping that you′d forgive me
But I've waited all night long
Then I called your mother
Hoping you d be there
You got me walking round in circles, baby
Pulling out my hair

She said you left this morning
She didn′t know where you had gone
And now you've got me beggin′ you
Please don't leave me alone, oh


Come back, baby, come back
Give me one more chance
You know I'll change my ways
Oh let′s try it over
Oh let′s try it over
Oh let's try it over
One more time

Oh yeah, oh baby, oh baby, listen

My health gonna fail me
If you don′t come on back
Can't live without you, baby
And that′s a natural fact, now listen
You know I'm still your man
Though you said I did you wrong
But if you just got to leave me
Please don′t stay so long

Come back, baby, come back
And give me one more chance
I will change my ways
Oh let's try it over
Oh let's try it over
Oh let′s try H over
One more time

Oh baby, come on, baby
Come on back right now
Yes, baby, come on back to me, baby
And I love you, you know I need you
I got to have you right now
Oh I need you, baby...
