[Verse 1] Blue sky upon the horizon Private eye is on my trail And if I don't be there by morning You know that I must have spent the night in jail I have been running from Memphis to L.A Had an appointment set sometime for today And if I don't be there by morning You know that I must have gone the other way [Chorus] Finding my way back to you, girl Lonely and blue and mistreated too Sometimes I think of you, girl Is it true that you think of me too? [Verse 2] I got a woman living in L.A I got a woman waiting for my pay And if I don't be there by morning Pack my clothes, get down on your knees and pray [Chorus] Finding my way back to you, girl Lonely and blue and mistreated too Sometimes I think of you, girl Is it true that you think of me too? [Outro] I left my woman with a twenty dollar bill I left her waiting, I hope she is waiting for me still If I don't be there by morning You know that I, I never will
