Darling, don't stay too long (Pretty baby)
Pretty baby, I know you're working hard for me (Working hard for me)
Darling, don't stay away too long
Pretty baby, save the overtime for me
I walk around tryna find something to do, baby
Until your return
Turn on the TV, or play some solitaire
It does the job for a while (For a while)
But nothing takes the place of you (Nothing takes the place of you)
No, no, no, just ain't no substitute
Ain't no substitute, no substitute)
'Cause you're all that I want and need
Only you can set me free
Darling, don't stay too long (Don't stay away from me)
Pretty baby, I know you're working hard for me (Hard for me)
Darling, don't stay away too long
Pretty baby, save the overtime for me
My love starts to come down hard on me
And I just can't find no relief, no
Only until I see your face again
I'm gonna be in such misery
Running to the door (Running to the door)
Peeping out the window (Peeping out the window)
Hoping to see only you
Listening for the phone (Listening for the phone)
Checking out the clock (Checking out the tick-tock)
Counting every second down
Hear me now, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
Darling, don't stay too long
Pretty baby, I know you're working hard for me
Darling, don't stay away too long
Pretty baby, save the overtime for me
Darling, don't stay away too long
Pretty baby, I know you're working hard for me
Darling, don't stay away too long
Pretty baby, save the overtime for me
Ooh, baby, baby (Save the, save the overtime for me)
Don't stay away too long
Pretty baby, ooh, pretty baby (Save the, save the overtime for me)
Don't stay away too long
Oh, I know that you got your eight hours
To do (Save the, save the overtime for me)
But I just don't feel good here without ya
Oh, oh, I'm missing you (Save the, save the overtime for me)
Oh, oh, feeling blue
Then all of a sudden
Ooh, baby
Don't stay away too long
I know it's crazy, but I
I walk around tryna find something else to do, pretty baby
Until your return
Turn on the TV, or play some solitaire
Does the job for a while (For a while)
Find myself running to the door (Running to the door)
Peeping out the window (Peeping out the window)
Hoping to see only you
I'm listening for the phone (Listening for the phone)
Checking out the clock (Checking out the tick-tock)
Counting every second down
Hear me now, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
Darling, don't stay away too long
Pretty baby, I know you're working hard for me
Darling, don't stay away too long
Pretty baby, save the overtime for me
Darling, don't stay too long (Working hard for me)
Pretty baby, I know you're working hard for me (Oh, darling, oh, baby)
Darling, don't stay away too long (Come real hard and set me free)
Pretty baby, save the overtime for me
Darling, don't stay too long (Ooh, pretty baby)
Pretty baby, I know you're working hard for me (Hard, hard, hard)
Darling, don't stay away too long (Ooh, pretty baby)
Pretty baby, save the overtime for me (5, 4, 3, 2, 1)
