[Verse 1]
Coffee gone cold on the table
Ashtray full of hard nights
Cheap pride
Her picture hangin’ crooked in the kitchen
I keep talkin’ to that frame like she still inside
[Chorus]
I’m gon’ get my baby back
Lord
I swear this time I’ll change
I done run those back roads ragged
Chasin’ every foolish thing
But my heart keep walkin’ home
Where her front porch light once shined
I’m gon’ get my baby back
If it’s the last fight of my life
[Verse 2]
Neighbor say she laughed in the grocery
Tryin’ hard to act like I’m fine
But her name still hang sweet in my mouth
Like late July peaches drippin’ down my spine
[Chorus]
I’m gon’ get my baby back
Lord
I swear this time I’ll change
I done run those back roads ragged
Chasin’ every foolish thing
But my heart keep walkin’ home
Where her front porch light once shined
I’m gon’ get my baby back
If it’s the last fight of my life
[Bridge]
I’ll lay my whiskey in the river (oh)
Throw my lies out in the yard
Walk barefoot to her doorway
If that’s what melts her hard
Hard heart
[Chorus]
I’m gon’ get my baby back
Lord
I swear this time I’ll change
Let her mama say I ain’t worth it
I’ll be standin’ in the rain
’Cause my heart keep walkin’ home
Every road leads to her drive
I’m gon’ get my baby back
If it’s the last fight of my life
