25 Miles

0

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(24 hours to find my baby)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Surely won't be long, 24 hours)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(24 hours to find my baby)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Surely won't be long, 24 hours)
[Verse 1]
I've got 24 hours (24 hours)
To find that little girl of mine
I've been racking my brain (Find her)
Just about stone insane (Help me find her)
'Cause I know I can't waste no time (Surely you can find her)
(Can't you find her, can't waste no time)
[Pre-Chorus]
Ever since she's left me, I cried every day
I just can't get myself together no kind of way
Everything is wrong, nothing's going right
I never knew a woman could get me so uptight, oh (I never knew it, I never knew it)
[Chorus]
(24 hours to find my baby)
I got to find my baby
(Surely won't be long, 24 hours)
[Verse 2]
We were strangers when we met
But her love I can't forget
She's been often-imitated but never duplicated yet
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, ever since she's left me, I've cried every day
I just can't get myself together no kind of way
Everything is wrong, nothing's going right
I never knew a woman could get me so uptight, oh (I never knew it, I never knew it)
[Bridge]
Her love has been the light
To always show me the way
But my world would just fall apart
If my baby has left me to stay
Won't somebody hear my plea (Somebody hear me)
Send that girl on back to me (Somebody hear me)
I just can't afford to waste no time (Can't waste no time)
I gotta have that little girl of mine (That little baby)
[Chorus]
I've got (24 hours to find my baby)
Sho 'nuff got to find her
(Surely won't be long, 24 hours)
24 hours to go (24 hours to find my baby)
Where my baby is, I don't know
(Surely won't be long, 24 hours)
But I've got to find her (24 hours to find my baby)
Sure 'nuff got to find her (Surely won't be long, 24 hours)
My baby, my baby (24 hours to find my baby)
Got to find my baby (Surely won't be long, 24 hours)
Somebody help me (24 hours to find my baby)
'Cause I got to find my baby (Surely won't be long, 24 hours)
