Lyrics
Folks say that you found some one new
to do the things I used to do for you.
Just call my name;
I’m not a (Bb7)shamed.
I’ll come run nin’ back to you.
Can’t sleep at night,
I can’t eat a bite.
When you were mine, I did n’t treat you right.
Just call my name, I know, I know I’m (Bb7)not a shamed.
I’ll come run nin’ (Eb)back to you.
Just like a king, I’ve lost ev
’ry thing.
I sit all a lone on my throne.
I’ve got my pride, but deep down in side
I’m yours and yours a lone, whoa.
I try to for get; have no re grets,
This love of ours could al ways (Ab)start a new.
Just call my name, whoa, I know I’m (Bb7)not a shamed.
I’ll come run nin’ (Eb7)back to (Ab)you.
Just like a king, I’ve lost ev
’ry thing.
I sit all a lone on my throne.
I’ve got my pride, but deep down in side
I’m yours and yours a lone, whoa.
I try to for get; have no re grets,
This love of ours could al ways (Ab)start a new.
Just call my name, whoa, I know I’m (Bb7)not a shamed.
I’ll come run nin’ (Eb7)back to (Ab)you.
(Ab)you.
