Honey... We were broke, and livin on love.

I was writin my songs and, singin in clubs.

You said you wanted, more out of life,

you didn't wanna be, a poor man's wife,

I've been countin the days,

since you went your seperate way.

I cain't sleep at night and, I worry all day.

I really need to see you, I have somethin to say.


Honey... When you gonna "Come Back" where you belong,

Cain't wait for you to "Get Back" you been gone too long,

I think you need to "Be Back" At home with me,

I'm as lonesome as I can be.


Honey... Now thangs ain't, the way they used to be.

I got signed up by, a record company.

Got lotsa' money in the bank, bought a fancy guitar,

private helicopter, and a brand-new car.

Honey... I'm a Country Star!

And, Honey... "I have you to thank"


Honey... When you left me, I was feein bad.

I was all depressed, then I got mad.

so I wrote some, nasty songs about you.

Well, someone heard them, and thought they was great.

Now I'm livin on, a big-ol' Country Estate.

Got a guard at the front, by the wrot-iron gate.

And, Honey..., "I have you to thank"!


So, Honey... When you gonna "Come Back" where you belong,

Cain't wait for you to "Get Back" you been gone too long,

I think you need to "Be Back" At home with me,

I'm as lonesome as I can be.


Honey... It's been a year, since you've been gone.

You haven't answered my letters, or called on the phone.

Now I'm a patient man, but you gotta understand,

I was all alone and I was sad. I coulda waited for you,

for the rest of my life, but I met a good woman,

and I made her my wife. Now I'm as happy as I can be,

got every thing I ever wanted, it all belongs to me.

Fame and fortune, and a family. So, Honey...


Please don't, "Come Back" "Get Back" "Be Back"!

"This ain't your home no more"!


Now aint it kinda... funny... Honey?

"I have you to thank"!
