Lyrics

Sittin' here lonely like a broken man

Sell my time and doin' the best I can

I wasn't boss they surrounding me

I don't want your sympathy, yeah

Oh baby, oh baby, I just need your tender lovin'

To keep me sane in this burnin' oven

When my time is up, be my reaper

Like Adam's work on God's green earth

My reaper, my reaper baby, Yeah I mean it's my reaper, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

Baby baby baby c'mon c'mon c'mon, yeah, yeah

Ice cold water's runnin' in my brain

And they drag me back to work again

Pains and blisters on my mind and my hands

from living daily with those canvas bags

Thoughts of freedom they're drivin' me wild

and I'll by happy like a new born child

We'll be together, girl, you wait and see

no more walls to keep your love from me

yeah, can't you feel my love

Baby, baby, baby, baby

Need you, squeeze you,

noooo-body but, nobody but, you girl, I love you, need you

Alight, I said everything's gonna be alright

and if you don't believe what I say

Just listen baby and I'll tell you

Can't you feel my love

Can't you see my skill

Can't you yell my love

it's getting louder

It's getting louder

A little closer, yeah

I said baby, baby I need you, c'mon, squeeze, please

Lord, I love you, I need you, yeah

Yeah, right by my side

I need you here by my side

But I can't help it baby

But, I'll be home soon

I'll be home soon, yeah

All right, whoa...
