You walked up yesterday and you told me you were leavin'
Left a note sayin' Momma won't be back
But you'll come back again now and I not got news for you dear
You won't have a home and that's a fact

I've always been around, Lord, when you needed someone
I played the role 'til I knew each line by heart
But now it's time to change, won't you find another playmate
Someone who'll be glad to play the part
