Oh, when I first said I was leaving
Girl, I didn't think I would
Have to stay gone so long

Oh, but now five weeks have ended
And I just realized that I did you wrong


(CHORUS)
But just think, y'all
I thought I was a big thing

But apparently she thought not
There must be something that I'm missing
Or is it something that she's got

Oh, baby, what is that
You got now, baby


Oh, I thought I had your mind right
Cause this is what you led me to believe
Oh, but now I'm the one who's uptight

And, baby, I'm the one who's got to plead

(CHORUS)


All your sweet loving, baby
Is, oh, so devastating to a man

Oh, but just like black magic. baby
I'm no fool but I couldn't understand


(CHORUS)

It makes me wanna cry, baby

Baby, I love you
Oh, baby, oh, baby
