Oooh oh oooh
I’ll keep working my way back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Hey, I’m working my way back to you, babe
And the happiness that died
I let it get away
Dodo dodo do
Been paying every day
Dodo dodo do
When you were so in love with me
I played around like I was free
Thought I could have my cake and eat it too
But how I cried over losing you
See, I’m down and out
But I ain’t about to go living my life without you
Hey, every day
I made you cry
I’ll pay and, girl
Till the day I die
I’ll keep working my way back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Yeah, I’m working my way back to you, babe
And the happiness that died
I let it get away
Dodo dodo do
Been paying every day
Dodo dodo do
Oh, I used to love to make you cry
It made me feel like a man inside
If I had been a man in reality
You’d be here, baby, loving me
Now my nights are long and lonely
And I ain’t too proud, babe
I just miss you so
Girl, but you’re too proud
And you won’t give in
But when I think about all I could win
I’ll keep working my way back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Yeah, I’m working my way back to you, babe
And the happiness that died
I let it get away
Dodo dodo do
Paying every day
Dodo dodo do
You, you babe
My road is kind of long
You
I just gotta get back home
You babe
Whoa, I’m really sorry for acting that way
I’m really sorry
Ooh, little girl
I’m really sorry for telling you lies so long
Oh, please, forgive me, girl
Come on
Give me a chance
Won’t you forgive me, girl
Hey
Let’s have romance
Ooh, forgive me, girl
Let’s try again
Come on, forgive me, girl
I want you over and over
And over and over again
I’ll keep working my way back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Hey, I’m working my way back to you, babe
And the happiness that died
I let it get away
Dodo dodo do
Paying every day
Dodo dodo do
I’ll keep working my way back to you, babe
Yeah
With a love inside
I’ll keep working my way back to you, babe
