Carmelita

Oh, Carmelita why you been gone so long

I've been sittin' here starin' out the window

Huggin' on the telephone

I've been searchin' my mind tryin' hard to find

Somethin' that I did wrong

Oh, Carmelita why you been gone so long

I called your mama and your sister

I even called your daddy too

He said listen here mister yeah this one's up to you

He said you know I love my baby

But she's hard headed like her mom

I've already fought that battle now yours has just begun

Oh, Carmelita why you been gone so long

I've been sittin' here starin' out the window

Huggin' on the telephone

I've been searchin' my mind tryin' hard to find

Somethin' that I did wrong

Oh, Carmelita why you been gone so long

You know you really got me shook up

Yeah, you really cut me down to size

But I'm never gonna give up 'til I look you in the eyes

And I hear your explanation

And you seal it with a kiss

It's gonna take a ton of your lovin' to get me over this

Oh, Carmelita why you been gone so long

I've been sittin' here starin' out the window

Huggin' on the telephone

I've been searchin' my mind tryin' hard to find

Somethin' that I did wrong

Oh, Carmelita why you been gone so long

Oh, Carmelita why you been gone so long

Girl why you been gone so long

You are killin' me

Thats right

Get back here

Come on now...
